The Catastrophic Effect of Interference

Plume IQ

For ISPs, interference can be a major barrier to achieving strong throughput and high quality of experience (QoE). In densely populated areas the problem is at its highest. We analyzed data taken from 30 multi-dwelling units (MDUs), both before and after applying Plume’s Wi-Fi optimization. Prior to optimization 35% of apartments suffered high interference levels. However, after optimization this dropped to less than 1%. Which means that customers are far less likely to make support calls because they cannot perfectly stream the latest 4K movie, or make that important video call without buffering.
