<p>A system and method is provided for identifying, accessing, and managing service applications for use with associated consumer electronic devices in a home network system (12). A client side process, executed by a client computing system (50) in the home network system (12), operates in conjunction with a server side process executed by a server computing system (20, 23) that is coupled with the client computing system via the Internet (18). The client computing system is implemented by a gateway device (14) coupled with each of the devices (30) via the home network (34). The client side process includes the steps of: determining device ID information (202) associated with at least one selected one of the consumer electronic devices in the home network system; determining a home network system configuration profile (210) based at least on the device ID information; providing the home network system configuration profile to a selected server (234) computing system via the Internet; downloading an application (238) form the selected server computing system, the application being operative to provide a process associated with the selected electronic devices; and executing the downloaded application at the gateway device to provide a remote interactive process associated with the selected electronic devices.</p> |
