Optim®
Managed Wi-Fi Solution
Resolve Wi-Fi Issues Without a Truck Roll
Wi-Fi is the preferred consumer choice for connectivity, so it’s no surprise that up to 50% of calls can be related to Wi-Fi issues. Interference from other Wi-Fi AP’s, architecture of buildings, congestion due to Wi-Fi traffic, and simple distance issues can all affect Wi-Fi performance and coverage. These calls result in a truck and a technician being dispatched to gain visibility into the problem. With Actiontec’s Optim Managed Wi-Fi, that can be a thing of the past.

Features of Optim Managed Wi-Fi
Cloud-based Platform
Optim’s cloud-based platform provides you with the flexibility to easily scale services to fit future growth and the efficiency to deploy your applications quickly to your customers with lower costs. Optim Cloud can be hosted by Actiontec or by the service provider. Optim Cloud enables remote configuration of user networks, either online or offline. Additionally, it facilitates holistic views into the home network, using machine learning to proactively fix issues, such as bandwidth hogs, channel congestion and interference.
Remote Troubleshooting
Remote troubleshooting provides a detailed view into the customer’s home network so your Support or Field Technician can use this real-time information to diagnose and solve many Wi-Fi issues without dispatching a truck: provides insights into which devices are connected to each router or another access point within the home network; view the strength of each device’s connection, and a host of other actionable information.
Intuitive Self-serve Dashboard
With Optim, subscribers get intuitive self-serve tools to manage their home networks and solve basic issues themselves, such as check Wi-Fi network health and see device connection performance in real time. Optim will also prompt the customer via the dashboard or App if it detects a problem, and recommend a solution for self-serve repair.
Subscriber Self-service Mobile App
Intuitive mobile companion app allows subscribers to check Wi-Fi health and troubleshoot basic issues on their own. This reduces support calls and caters to those customers who prefer self-service options.
- See all devices connected to their network and conduct speed tests
- View overall Wi-Fi network health, both current and historical
- Run diagnostics to identify bandwidth hogs and identify poor Wi-Fi coverage areas in the home

True Real-time Data Reporting
Big Data and Fast Data management and analytics work as a holistic engine to automatically identify trends and to develop timely solutions to underperforming network components. True real-time and historical data produce comprehensive insights into issues and provides information to the necessary stakeholders. In addition, Optim supports fully customizable algorithm development. Powerful historical reporting can enable technicians focus on any devices’ performance to check out details over any given period. And when a customer calls with an issue, a support technician can access this valuable information to recommend a solution in half the time, resulting in faster call resolution, more accurate first-call resolution, operational cost savings and increased customer satisfaction.
Self-Healing Networks
Optim includes Machine Learning and AI technology to diagnose and solve many WiFi issues automatically, delivering a better Wi-Fi experience, with less intervention needed by the service provider or subscriber.
