Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer readable media can be operable to facilitate a self-monitoring of the performance of a wireless video service that is provided by a customer premise equipment (CPE) device. A CPE device such as an access point may periodically or continuously retrieve wireless video performance parameters associated with one or more devices receiving a wireless video service from the CPE device and/or one or more wireless links used by the CPE device to deliver wireless video services. The CPE device may consolidate retrieved parameters into a wireless video performance index and may compare the wireless video performance index to a threshold range. If the video performance index lies outside of the threshold range, the CPE device may output an alert to a device controlled by a content provider. The alert may provide a notification of an issue with the delivery of wireless video services by the CPE device.
