1. A system for monitoring and optimizing network performance for a wireless device, the system comprising:
- a wireless router in direct communication with the wireless device for transmitting and receiving radio frequency (RF) signals between the wireless router and the wireless device, the wireless router configured to;
count a total number of data packets being communicated via the wireless router during a time period;
determine an amount of bandwidth associated with the data packets being communicated via the wireless router;
determine network performance information associated with data packets communicated over the wireless router; and
a packet network switch in network communication with the wireless router for communicating the data packets between the wireless router and the packet network switch; and
a network management device in communication with the packet network switch for instructing the packet network switch to route the network performance information to the network management device, the network management device utilizing the network performance information to;
identify one or more network performance problems associated with the wireless router; and
transmit instructional data packets to the wireless router that include instructions for optimizing network performance to the wireless device in response to identifying the one or more network performance problems associated with the wireless router.
