The Wi-Fi data points may correspond to a plurality of users of an enterprise for a particular number of days. In some examples, the Wi-Fi data points may indicate a time period during each of the particular number of days when each of the plurality of users was connected to a Wi-Fi network. Instructions may further be executable to determine that a subset of the Wi-Fi data points represent outliers and remove the subset of Wi-Fi data points to create a data set. The data set may comprise non-outlier Wi-Fi data points. Instructions may further be executable to determine a Wi-Fi Adoption Index (WAI) for each of the plurality of users based on the data set. ## Claims ### Claim at position 1 1-15. (canceled) ### Claim 16 A method comprising: collecting wireless access data points corresponding to a plurality of user devices, each of the wireless access data points indicating a time period when a corresponding one of the plurality of user devices was wirelessly connected to an enterprise network via one or more particular wireless access points associated with an enterprise; and determining an index value for wireless adoption for one or more of the plurality of user devices, based on one or more of the wireless access data points, the index value for the one or more of the plurality of user devices indicating an extent of wireless usage within the enterprise. ### Claim 17 (depends on 16) The method of claim 16, further comprising: comparing the index value of a particular user device of the plurality of user devices to the index values for wireless adoption for additional user devices of the plurality of user devices; and rating wireless adoption of the particular user device to wireless adoption of the additional user devices based on the comparison. ### Claim 18 (depends on 16) The method of claim 16, wherein the collecting the wireless access data points includes: collecting data indicating a length of time at least one of the plurality of user devices is wirelessly connected to the network via the one or more particular wireless access points; and collecting data indicating a time of day during which at least one of the user devices is wirelessly connected to the network via the one or more particular wireless access points. ### Claim 19 (depends on 16) The method of claim 16, further comprising: determining a subset of the wireless access data points that meet a predetermined criteria associated with the time period to be outliers; and removing the outliers from the collected wireless access data points to create non-outlier wireless access data points, wherein the index value for wireless adoption is determined for one or more of the plurality of user devices corresponding to one or more of the non-outlier wireless access data points. ### Claim 20 (depends on 19) The method of claim 19, wherein the predetermined criteria includes a first condition that the time period is above a first threshold. ### Claim 21 (depends on 20) The method of claim 20, further comprising adjusting the first threshold based on usage tendency of the network via the one or more particular wireless access points by the plurality of user devices. ### Claim 22 (depends on 21) The method of claim 21, wherein the predetermined criteria includes a second condition that the time period is below a second threshold higher than the first threshold. ### Claim 23 (depends on 22) The method of claim 22, further comprising adjusting the second threshold based on the usage tendency of the network via the one or more particular wireless access points by the plurality of user devices. ### Claim 24 (depends on 19) The method of claim 19, further comprising determining the predetermined criteria, such that less than a predetermined ratio of the wireless access data points is determined to be the outliers. ### Claim 25 (depends on 16) The method of claim 16, wherein connection between the plurality of user devices and the one or more wireless access points are based on Wi-Fi connection. ### Claim 26 A system comprising: one or more wireless access points associated with an enterprise; and a controller connected to the one or more wireless access points and configured to: collect wireless access data points corresponding to a plurality of user devices, each of the wireless access data points indicating a time period when a corresponding one of the plurality of user devices was wirelessly connected to an enterprise network the via one or more particular wireless access points; and determine an index value for wireless adoption for one or more of the plurality of user devices, based on one or more of the non-outlier wireless access data points, the index value for the one or more of the plurality of user devices indicating an extent of wireless usage within the enterprise. ### Claim 27 (depends on 26) The system of claim 26, wherein the controller is further configured to: compare the index value of a particular user device of the plurality of user devices to the index values for wireless adoption for additional user devices of the plurality of user devices; and rate wireless adoption of the particular user device to wireless adoption of the additional user devices based on the comparison. ### Claim 28 (depends on 26) The system of claim 26, wherein the controller is further configured to: collect data indicating a length of time at least one of the plurality of user devices is wirelessly connected to the network via the one or more particular wireless access points; and collect data indicating a time of day during which at least one of the user devices is wirelessly connected to the network via the one or more particular wireless access points. ### Claim 29 (depends on 26) The system of claim 26, wherein the controller is further configured to: determine a subset of the wireless access data points that meet a predetermined criteria associated with the time period to be outliers; remove the outliers from the collected wireless access data points to create non-outlier wireless access data points; and determine the index value for wireless adoption for one or more of the plurality of user devices corresponding to one or more of the non-outlier wireless access data points. ### Claim 30 (depends on 29) The system of claim 29, wherein the predetermined criteria includes a first condition that the time period is above a first threshold. ### Claim 31 (depends on 30) The system of claim 30, wherein the controller is further configured to adjust the first threshold based on usage tendency of the network via the one or more particular wireless access points by the plurality of user devices. ### Claim 32 (depends on 31) The system of claim 31, wherein the predetermined criteria includes a second condition that the time period is below a second threshold higher than the first threshold. ### Claim 33 (depends on 32) The system of claim 32, wherein the controller is further configured to adjust the second threshold based on the usage tendency of the network via the one or more particular wireless access points by the plurality of user devices. ### Claim 34 (depends on 29) The system of claim 29, wherein the controller is further configured to determine the predetermined criteria, such that less than a predetermined ratio of the wireless access data points is determined to be the outliers. ### Claim 35 (depends on 26) The system of claim 26, wherein connection between the plurality of user devices and the one or more wireless access points are based on Wi-Fi connection.
