description The disclosure relates to a method and device for evaluating the quality of a channel operable by a WiFi access point for establishing a WiFi connection with a communication device. The method is implemented by the communication device, which is already connected to the access point on a given channel, called a current channel, within a predetermined WiFi frequency band. The method includes a first phase for computing a score representative of a channel quality for at least one WiFi channel, called a scanned channel, within the predetermined WiFi frequency band, the first phase including at least one iteration of: obtaining the scanned channel bandwidth and a maximum effective isotropic radiated power associated with the scanned channel; determining a number of neighboring access points operating in the scanned channel; estimating a neighbor airtime occupancy for the scanned channel; and computing a score for the scanned channel, as a function of the obtained bandwidth, the obtained maximum effective isotropic radiated power, the determined number of neighboring access points, and the estimated neighbor airtime occupancy.
