Abstract

The increasing rate of the Internet users has caused the storage of tremendous amount of data and the rise in web traffic resulting to network congestion, web service delay and slow response time. These network bottlenecks have affected the services and performance experienced by the users thereby posing a serious question against the network reliability and usability. This paper analyzes the usability of a wireless network and its performance based on the quality of service (QoS) experienced by the network users. A huge amount of distinct packets were collected on 1,476 installed access points using wireshark packet tool over a period of three weeks for data pre-capturing at experimental stage. Experimental analysis was carried out using a number of QoS parameters subject to the network resource requirements and usability. Experimental results showed the usability indices for each QoS parameter and the practicality of traffic patterns, user behaviors and other QoS parameters in measuring network usability.
