A 3-Staged Approach for Wi-Fi Residential Gateway Testing

Sitarama Penumetsa

What is the trick to getting the most relevant and maximum test coverage in the least amount of time with the least cost and resources when testing a modern Wi-Fi router? Just like any good recipe needs the perfect combination to flavor, color and texture, every good test strategy needs the right combination of repeatability, scalability, Automation and Realism.

This presentation talks about a 3 staged test approach for modern Wi-Fi router testing where we try to balance all these dimensions of testing at various stages of the product R&D and deployment to achieve the most optimal test coverage. We explain how we can start with benchmarking with virtual devices in early stages of R&D and then slowly move on to interoperability in the lab and testing in test houses in the field as we get closer to the release of the products.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our conferences.

What is the Cancellation/Refund Policy?

We do not offer refunds. When you register, we incur non-refundable costs to hold your spot, such as gear purchases, hotel room reservations, and food and accommodations.

If you have paid and are unable to attend for any reason, whether due to sickness, scheduling conflict, etc., you are welcome to transfer your registration to someone else. Simply provide us with their name and information, and we'll update the registration.

If you register but do not pay within a timely manner we do have cut off deadlines where we will be forced to drop your registration.  You will be more than welcome to re-register if space is available.

What if I Need to Extend My Stay at the Hotel?

If you need to arrive early or stay beyond what's included with your registration, you can request extra "shoulder nights" at a reduced rate, based on availability (the room rate will be available during registration).

During the registration process, you'll have the opportunity to request any additional nights you may need before or after the main conference block. Note that the included hotel check-in is always the night before the Main Conference begins, and check-out is on the last day of the conference.

We will inform the hotel on your behalf and update your registration accordingly. You will pay the hotel directly for any extra shoulder nights when you check-out.

If you select an additional shoulder night, please inform the hotel or us if you no longer need it to avoid cancellation fees or being charged the full rate of the room.

What's Included With My Registration

All registrations include hotel accommodation, breakfast, lunch, access to all conference presentations, and participation in evening vendor events. All attendees participate in a Deep Dive session of their choice, including any associated materials or gear.

For those who choose the Boot Camp add-on, additional nights at the hotel, breakfasts, lunches, and two group dinners are also included.

Please Note: Hotel check-in is always the night before the Main Conference or Boot Camp begins, with check-out on the last day of the conference.
