A method of setting up a local broadband network contemplates using electronic circuitry to determine a geographic location of the electronic circuitry. The electronic circuitry can measure an actual condition of the local broadband network at the location and select an external function in the local broadband network dependent on the location and the actual condition. The method further contemplates electronic circuitry signaling at least the location and the external function to a central database via a common communication backbone. The electronic circuitry determines whether the local broadband network exceeds a network load threshold value, wherein falling below the network load threshold value causes the electronic circuitry to re-evaluate one or more connections in the local broadband network. The method contemplates that the electronic circuitry complies with a communication protocol of the local broadband network dependent on the external function.
