The present invention relates to a computer system and a method for inserting or merging additional or supplementary contents into the web contents retrieved by a user connected over a Wireless Access Point (WAP) to the Internet. The broadband access can be provisioned by an Internet Service Provider (ISP) via any wired or wireless access technology, for instance, DSL, cable connections, optical fibre, or WiMax. The WAP can be a standalone apparatus, or it can be in- built in an Internet connectivity apparatus like a DSL or cable modem located in an ISP user's premises, henceforth the Customer Premises Equipment (CPE).
In sum, the present invention allows the CPE to embed selective contents based on user activity and location into the web pages requested by a mobile user. This is done by caching the web pages in the CPE using a transparent proxy, embedding the contents retrieved from a content provider, and distributing them to the user.
