The formulation and execution of a connectivity policy is disclosed herein to improve the performance of a wireless network (WN). A wireless access point (WAP) within the WN identifies electronic devices that have been granted access to the WN and/or are associated with the WAP to provide a connectivity catalog that forms the basis of the connectivity policy. This connectivity catalog is communicated to other WAPs within the network. In some situations, these other WAPs can execute the connectivity policy to deny access to electronic devices within the connectivity catalog to their corresponding networks. For example, these other WAPs can execute the connectivity policy on those electronic devices that are within a prescribed connectivity distance from the WAP that provided the connectivity catalog.

Formulation and enforcement of a connectivity policy in a wireless network environment

Customers at a premises attempting to connect a new wireless device, such as a mobile phone or tablet to an available wireless network (Wi-Fi), receive network login information such as an Wi-Fi SSID (service set identification) and Password through a system generated equivalent QR code that can then be scanned to automatically connect to the Wi-Fi network. The system receives a request for Wi-Fi settings at a premises, identifies customer equipment associated with the premises, identifies an Wi-Fi SSID (Service Set Identification) and password associated with the customer equipment, generates a QR (Quick Response) code representing the Wi-Fi SSID and password, sends the QR code to one or more devices associated with the premises for display and subsequent scanning at the premises.
