An emergency location informer system comprising: a connection between an internet service provider, ISP, and a plurality of wireless access points, APs, (30A, 30B, 30C), wherein the ISP is a trusted 3 rd party source having accurate known civic address information for each of APs, (30A, 30B, 30C), wherein each AP has a tag generated by the ISP that is associated with the known civic address information for the AP (30A, 30B, 30C) and that is not modifiable by a user of the AP (30A, 30B, 30C) after its generation, an emergency mobile positioning, EMP, server configured to communicate over a public switched telephone network, PSTN, a cellular network and an internet protocol, IP, network; an emergency service number, ESN, database server configured to store the known civic addresses and associated tags of the APs, (30A, 30B, 30C) that are provided by the ISP over the IP network, wherein the tags are usable for retrieving, via the ESN database entry, a civic address of a location from where an emergency call is originating; an EMP-AP component (16A, 16B, 16C) configured to be stored in non-transitory computer readable media and executing on a processor of each wireless access point, AP, (30A, 30B, 30C) at the known civic addresses, wherein the EMP-AP component (16A, 16B, 16C) is configured to communicate tag information with the ISP over the IP network, the tag information including the tag associated with the known civic address stored in the ESN database server, the tag forming a part of a radio frequency, RF, beacon signal transmitted by the AP (30A, 30B, 30C), wherein the EMP-AP component (16A, 16B, 16C) is generated by the ISP, transmitted to the AP (30A, 30B, 30C) over the IP network and stored in the non-transitory computer readable media of the AP (30A, 30B, 30C), the EMP-AP component (16A, 16B, 16C) including code segments for embedding the tag into beacon frames of the RF beacon signal along with other beacon information provided by the AP (30A, 30B, 30C); and an EMP-OS component configured to be incorporated into an operating system, OS, and executing on a processor of a cell phone and to monitor the beacon signal of the AP (30A, 30B, 30C) and to store the tag, the EMP-OS component being further configured to embed the tag in an emergency call from the cell phone to the EMP server over a network; whereby the EMP server is configured to receive the tag embedded in the emergency call such that the civic address associated with the tag is retrieved from the ESN database server. a connection between an internet service provider, ISP, and a plurality of wireless access points, APs, (30A, 30B, 30C), wherein the ISP is a trusted 3 rd party source having accurate known civic address information for each of APs, (30A, 30B, 30C), wherein each AP has a tag generated by the ISP that is associated with the known civic address information for the AP (30A, 30B, 30C) and that is not modifiable by a user of the AP (30A, 30B, 30C) after its generation, an emergency mobile positioning, EMP, server configured to communicate over a public switched telephone network, PSTN, a cellular network and an internet protocol, IP, network;
