Problem: Poor Quality of ServiceUsers on low quality Wi-Fi networks become frustrated when having to seek better networks, manually disconnecting and reconnecting repeatedly, with no quality assurance.

Wi-Fi Battery Drain – SOLUTIONTo conserve battery life, NetWise SmartSpot turns off the Wi-Fi radio when the user is out of range of Wi-Fi, or connected to a cellular network. But if an available Wi-Fi access point is in range, it can automatically turn on the Wi-Fi radio and connect.
