Abstract: A system and method for selecting a network interface for a communication device having at least two radio physical interface, to improve communications by the communication device. A configuration of the communication device is determined, where a first radio physical interface is designated as a primary interface and active, and a second radio physical interface as idle. A networking subsystem of the operating system executes a state machine configured to monitor network conditions and associated performance parameters of the at least two radio physical interfaces, to automatically outrank the second radio physical interface over the first radio physical interface as the primary interface.
