Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Does your Wi-Fi network make the naughty or nice list? We created a checklist of top 5 bad things that can harm user experience over Wi-Fi and the top 5 good things that can make a good user experience over Wi-Fi.
Let’s have a little fun with it. We added couple of extras in there for you. There’s also have a giveaway at the end of this episode.
This list is not to fully suggest your Wi-Fi network is good or not. There are many factors that go into that decision. Let your user experience really decide 🙂
Naughty List

- Using a splash page
- Your Wi-Fi is throttling users
