Abstract: Systems and methods for managing network connectivity of speech processing-enabled devices are provided. The speech-enabled device may periodically monitor a variety of metrics related to the network connectivity status of the device, and save those metrics in a local events log. The speech-enabled device may then periodically send those metrics to a remote speech processing management system. Users may then use voice commands to request the status of the speech-enabled device, and the speech-enabled device will send that request to the speech processing management system. The speech processing management system can then retrieve the historical metrics for that device and determine one or more inferences regarding the condition of the device. These inferences are used to diagnose potential network connectivity problems being experienced by the speech-enabled device, and to generate recommendations for remediating those problems.

Abstract: Systems and methods for functionality management of devices are disclosed. Multiple computing devices may be located in the same environment and/or space and at least two of those computing devices may be configured to perform a given functionality. In these and other examples, one of the devices may be identified as a primary device and the other devices may be identified as secondary devices based on, for example, historical usage data, audio-signal data, computer-vision analysis, and/or one or more other criteria. The functionality may be disabled on the secondary devices until the secondary devices are utilized and/or until a triggering event occurs.
