Claim 10:
11. A network system comprising:
one or more device side interfaces configured to communicate with a plurality of network devices;
one or more network side interfaces configured to communicate with an external network;
a gateway device; and
one or more processors configured to:
associate a first network device of the plurality of network devices and a second network device of the plurality of network devices with a single network access subscription, the single network access subscription providing access to the external network and providing a subset of available bandwidth to be shared by the first network device and the second network device; and
in response to a bandwidth usage by the second network device rendering a remaining bandwidth available to the first network device according to the single network access subscription insufficient to transmit network communication data from the first network device to the external network, transmitting, via the gateway device, the network communication data from the first network device to the external network by treating data transmitted via the gateway device to the external network from the first network device and the second network device as if the data were being transmitted via the gateway device to the external network from a single device according to the single network access subscription.
