Abstract
In one or more embodiments, a device is configured to automatically contact a Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP) service provider using a communication system that is not native to the VoIP service provider. The device can receive and/or intercept a representation of a first address that is not directed to the VoIP service provider, and generate a representation of a second address effective to contact the VoIP service provider using the representation of the second address. Some embodiments provide an ability to program and/or query a device using telecommunication signaling. In some cases, a service provider can remotely manage firmware and/or software updates to the device using the telecommunication signaling. Alternately or additionally, an end user can manually program information into the device through the telecommunication signaling, such as a predefined address associated with the service provider.
