Abstract: The technology makes wireless roaming decisions for a computing device. The device is configured to determine whether to consider roaming and to generate a roam reason. The device determines a quality score for at least one access point within a wireless communication range of the device based at least in part on the roam reason. A target access point with a highest quality score is selected. The device may then determine to roam to the target access point, if the target access point is not the current access point to which the device is connected.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus allow a mobile device to proactively switch to a new network by using quality of connection information and the rate of change of the received signal strength indication (RSSI) to proactively switch from a first network, such as a WiFi network, to the new network, such as another WiFi network or a cellular network. For example, the mobile device determines a rate of change of the RSSI for the first network. Based on the rate of change of the RSSI, the mobile device predicts when the RSSI of the network is beyond a quality threshold. Based on the prediction, the mobile device switches from the first network to a second network. In another example, the method and device uses a quality of connection of the first network connection to determine when to switch from a first network connection to a second network connection.
