Patent number: 11832355Abstract: Some embodiments include assessing multimedia service in a particular environment, determining in real-time whether an extender device would improve the multimedia service in the particular environment, and communicating a recommendation via a graphical user interface (GUI). The assessing is based on physical layer and application layer measurements of the multimedia service in the particular environment. Some embodiments utilize an application on a mobile communications device that may be used in conjunction with a multimedia device to determine placement of an extender device among multimedia devices associated with a same multimedia service customer account for a desired performance and hence, a desired customer experience.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2022Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: Roku, Inc.Inventors: Amalavoyal Narasimha Chari, Jim Funk, Sujatha Jagannathan, Liang-Jong Huang, Jason Schmidlapp, Tito Thomas, Ilya Asnis

Patent number: 11546758Abstract: Many customers have difficulty setting up a new extender device in the customer premises environment to improve their multimedia service. Some embodiments include configuring an extender device based on existing WiFi network credentials to minimize errors. Some embodiments include an application for mobile devices that may enable the transfer of network credentials from existing multimedia devices on the WiFi network to configure a new extender device in real time. For example, the configuration may be based on a customer account, a corresponding environment, and corresponding multimedia devices associated with the customer account. The extender device may be configured with the network credentials (e.g., a WiFi service set identifier (SSID) and password) that is common to the corresponding multimedia devices associated with the customer account.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2020Date of Patent: January 3, 2023Assignee: ROKU, INC.Inventors: Amalavoyal Narasimha Chari, Jim Funk, Sujatha Jagannathan, Liang-Jong Huang, Jason Schmidlapp, Tito Thomas, Ilya Asnis
