As homes fill up with more and more connected devices, managing the customer’s home Wi-Fi network effectively and efficiently has become more important than ever. With the adoption of Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 6E and now Wi-Fi 7 technology in their broadband routers and modems, cablecos are seeking to stay ahead of the curve by offering higher speeds and more bandwidth to subscribers, extending the home network’s range and reducing the mounting congestion of the home network. Operators are also looking to develop and deploy new smart-home services and generate fresh revenue.
