Research: Wi-Fi quality gaps drive churn risk for US ISPs

Research from Parks Associates and TechSee presented at Enterprise Connect shows that as broadband competition expands across fibre, 5G fixed wireless, and next-generation satellite services, providers in the US are increasingly winning or losing customers based on the quality of the in-home Wi-Fi experience.

The firm’s white paper, Seeing the Unseen: Delivering Connectivity with Confidence, developed from a survey of 8,000 US internet households, quantifies the direct financial and brand impact of poor in-home connectivity and outlines how self-support apps enhanced with visual AI can reverse churn risk and strengthen loyalty.

Parks Associates finds that customer premise equipment (CPE), Wi-Fi 6/6E and Wi-Fi 7 upgrades, mesh systems, and intelligent router telemetry are emerging as critical competitive levers. However, traditional telemetry alone cannot fully diagnose home environment challenges such as router placement, interference, or structural barriers.

“Self-support apps powered by visual AI offer a scalable solution and enable customers to diagnose issues instantly, receive guided remediation, and avoid unnecessary truck rolls,” commented Jennifer Kent, SVP & Principal Analyst, Parks Associates. “As broadband penetration reaches maturity and competitive entry accelerates, ISPs face a defining moment: control the in-home experience or risk losing it to competitors that can deliver clearer visibility and faster resolution.”
