A determination may be made that a region of the RAN is serving more than a threshold extent of WCDs configured for machine-to-machine communication. The region of the RAN may include a set of one or more wireless coverage areas, and each wireless coverage area in the set of wireless coverage areas
A determination may be made that a region of the RAN is serving more than a threshold extent of WCDs configured for machine-to-machine communication. The region of the RAN may include a set of one or more wireless coverage areas, and each wireless coverage area in the set of wireless coverage areas may include at least one paging channel. The paging channel parameters of each wireless coverage area in the set of wireless coverage areas may be modified to increase a rate at which the RAN successfully pages WCDs via the set of wireless coverage areas.
