Abstract
Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for collecting and analyzing data from customer premise equipment (CPEs) in a broadcasting network. An embodiment operates by a headend device establishing a first set of connections to a set of CPE devices, transmitting a set of CPE data collection instructions to each CPE device, and then terminating the first set of connections. Subsequently, the embodiment operates by the headend device establishing a second set of connections to the set of CPE devices and receiving, from a subset of the set of CPE devices, a set of CPE data packages generated based on set of CPE data collection instructions. The embodiment further operates by the headend device generating a CPE dataset based on the set of CPE data packages and determining a set of CPE diagnostic data for one or more CPE devices based on the CPE dataset.
