WiFi Optimizations to Improve SSID Priority to Enhance Overall Quality of Experience (2016)

By Ivan Ong, Comcast

Mobile devices (laptops, tablets, and phones) may not associate with the best Wi-Fi access point when returning to a home network. This paper will explore how to tune parameters on the PHY and MAC layer of 802.11 to improve association in the absence of a controller or without the need of a third party connection manager app to ensure prioritization from the client itself. It will also include an empirical analysis of the behavior of certain clients as they attempt to associate to their residential wireless gateway routers and conclude with some guidelines for potential tuning parameters.
