Zusammenfassung:A network access device directs an electronic device, distinct from the network access device, to display graphical user interface, the graphical user interface comprising a network access self-identification user interface. The network access device obtains a selection of a user identification option, through the self-identification user interface. In accordance with a determination that the selected user identification option corresponds to a registered user (e.g., a registered user in a research panel), of a previously defined set of registered users of the network access device, the network access device enables access to a communications network, in accordance with the application of one or more logging rules corresponding to the selected user. Further, in accordance with a determination that the selected user identification option corresponds to an unregistered, guest user, the network access device enables access to the communications network, without the application of any logging rules.
