Abstract: Methods, systems, and media for controlling network connections are provided. In some implementations, a method for controlling network connections is provided, the method comprising: determining, by a user device connection to an access point by a first network connection, that a second network connection is available; determining that the user device is in an idle state; while the user device is in the idle state, switching from the first network connection to the second network connection; monitoring network activity using the second network connection; switching back to the first network connection; generating a profile for the second network connection based at least in part on the monitored network activity; comparing the profile for the second network connection to a profile for the first network connection; selecting the second network connection based on the comparison; and in response to selecting the second network connection, switching to the second network connection.

Abstract: Various arrangements are presented for controlling a mesh network. An electronic device may determine an occupancy state of a structure. In response to determining that the structure is not occupied, the electronic device may determine whether each node of the mesh network is in communication with at least one device that currently needs wireless communications, wherein the mesh network comprises a plurality of nodes. Power consumption of at least one node of the plurality of nodes of the mesh network may be adjusted based on determining whether each node of the mesh network is in communication with at least one device that currently needs wireless communications.

Abstract: A system includes an electronic device that has communication circuitry configured to communicate with one or more other electronic devices on a wireless network in a structure. The electronic device includes a processor operatively coupled to a memory and configured to determine a status associated with occupants of the structure. The processor may determine a priority schedule based at least in part on the status. The priority schedule may be indicative of an amount of bandwidth allocated to each of the one or more other electronic devices. The processor may then cause data to be communicated by each of the one or more other electronic devices based at least in part on the priority schedule.
