1. A method for transmitting data corresponding to an endpoint device problem to a packet network, comprising:
- generating the data corresponding to the endpoint device problem at an endpoint device, wherein the data comprises statistics related to the endpoint device problem, wherein the generating is responsive to the endpoint device problem being detected by a server in the packet network, wherein the endpoint device problem comprises a problem with communicating with the packet network;
transmitting the data from the endpoint device to the packet network, wherein the data is intended to be used for diagnosing the endpoint device problem; and
receiving an alarm generated by the server in the packet network at the endpoint device associated with a customer if a solution that resolves the endpoint device problem is not found within a predefined period of time, wherein the endpoint device comprises an internet protocol endpoint device.

Abstract
A method and system for transmitting data corresponding to at least one endpoint device problem in a packet communications network is described. Specifically, an endpoint device detects at least one problem that pertains to the endpoint device. The endpoint device then generates data pertaining to the endpoint device problem. Lastly, the endpoint device then transmits the data detailing that endpoint device problem to the packet communications network.

13. A method for providing a solution corresponding to an endpoint device problem in a packet network, comprising:
-
detecting by a server in the packet network the endpoint device problem pertaining to an endpoint device, wherein the endpoint device problem comprises a problem with communicating with the packet network; receiving data corresponding to the endpoint device problem generated by the endpoint device, wherein the data comprises statistics related to the endpoint device problem, wherein the packet network diagnoses the endpoint device problem using the data transmitted from the endpoint device; searching for the solution that resolves the endpoint device problem pertaining to the endpoint device; and transmitting an alarm generated by the server in the packet network to the endpoint device associated with a customer if the solution that resolves the endpoint device problem fails to be found within a predefined period of time, wherein the endpoint device comprises an Internet protocol endpoint device. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17)
