ABSTRACT:
A method and an apparatus for classifying a data network connectable computing device as a mobile computing device. Information related to the location of a registering device is determined. The determined location information is compared to a stored location information associated to this device. The device is detected as a mobile device when at least the stored location information is different to the determined location information. Neither the devices themselves nor any access mechanism to the data network have to be changed.
