Abstract: Systems and methods for home security include monitoring people and Wi-Fi client devices that connect and operate on a Wi-Fi network; and, responsive to an event, providing information related to people currently at a home associated with the Wi-Fi network. The method can include, prior to the monitoring, associating a person to one or more of the Wi-Fi client devices. The present disclosure leverages the ubiquitous deployment of Wi-Fi networks to provide various functions related to home security, elder care, safety, wellness, monitoring, and the like via a Wi-Fi network, and particularly by monitoring who is home, including even what room, location, etc. users are located.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for using multiple Wi-Fi radios at different frequency bands to maintain full rate through a leaf node. One exemplary method detects when a client device connects to a first Wi-Fi component over a new fronthaul link and determines Wi-Fi communication capabilities of the client device. Based on the Wi-Fi communication capabilities, the method determines which one of the current topology and a new topology of the Wi-Fi network would result in greater throughput of packets through the Wi-Fi network. When it is determined that the new topology would result in greater throughput, the method includes adjusting the topology by designating one of a first radio and a second radio of the first Wi-Fi component for communication over a backhaul link with one or more other Wi-Fi components and designating the other of the first radio and second radio for communication over the new fronthaul link.

Abstract: Systems and methods for selecting Wi-Fi channels are provided. A method, according to one implementation, includes obtaining a first measurement of a sojourn time associated with operating a Wi-Fi radio at a first Wi-Fi channel, where the first Wi-Fi channel has a first bandwidth. The sojourn time is a metric related to the length of time that packets are queued before being transmitted within a Wi-Fi network. The method also includes the step of obtaining one or more additional measurements of one or more sojourn times associated with operating the Wi-Fi radio at one or more additional Wi-Fi channels. Each of the one or more additional Wi-Fi channels has a bandwidth that is different from the first bandwidth. Also, the method includes selecting a channel from among the first Wi-Fi channel and the one or more additional Wi-Fi channels based on the bandwidth and sojourn time of each respective channel.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for automatically provisioning customer-specific credentials on a gateway device, Customer Premises Equipment (CPE), or the like. A method, according to one implementation, includes the step of determining when a remote gateway device is connected to a Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) server via a network. The remote gateway device is intended to enable one or more user devices in a Local Area Network (LAN) to access the Internet via the network and PPPoE server. The method also includes the step of automatically configuring customer-specific PPPoE credentials on the remote gateway device to thereby enable the PPPoE server to authenticate the remote gateway device and grant Internet access.
