Claim 0:
1. A method comprising:
providing, by a user device, user device location data identifying a latitude, a longitude, and a heading of the user device associated with a customer premises;
receiving, by the user device, base station location data identifying a latitude, a longitude, and signal coverage of a base station;
displaying, by the user device, based on the user device location data and the base station location data, a first user interface that includes a user device indication, a base station indication, and a selection option;
receiving, by the user device, a selection of the selection option;
upon receiving the selection, retrieving, by the user device, camera view data and sensor data associated with the user device based on the selection;
displaying, by the user device, a second user interface that includes the first user interface overlaid on a camera view of the user device, an augmented reality-based signal strength directional indicator, and an augmented reality-based base station location representation associated with the base station near the customer premises,
wherein displaying the augmented reality-based base station location representation associated with the base station near the customer premises is based on a navigational heading of the user device being pointed within a threshold angle range of the base station near the customer premises,
wherein displaying the augmented reality-based base station location representation associated with the base station near the customer premises comprises providing instructions indicating an amount to rotate the user device to cause the navigational heading of the user device to be pointed within the threshold angle range are provided based on the user device being presently pointed outside the threshold angle range, and
wherein the augmented reality-based signal strength directional indicator is a three-dimensional indicator that appears to rotate based on a particular amount that the navigational heading of the user device is turned away from the base station near the customer premises;

receiving, by the user device, based on user navigation via the second user interface, information indicating that the user device is located at an optimal signal strength location associated with the base station near the customer premises; and
performing, by the user device, one or more actions based on the information indicating that the user device is located at the optimal signal strength location associated with the base station at the customer premises.
