Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for generating a delay profile for different priority classifications. In one aspect, multiple latency probes are transmitted by a source node to a target network node. Each latency probe has a different priority code. A response to each of the transmitted latency probes is received by the source node from the target network node. Based on the received responses, a delay profile for the target network node is generated by the source node. The delay profile provides multiple network latency measurements for packets transmitted to the target network node with the different priority codes. A user interface of a display is updated to visually present at least a portion of the delay profile.

Abstract: A method of controlling a wireless communication device to dynamically adapt and update roaming parameters stored in the device when operating in a wireless network. The method includes: determining a first roaming metric (M1) for a first wireless access point (AP) of the network when the device is in communication with the first AP; determining a second roaming metric (M2) for a second wireless AP of the network when the device has roamed to the second AP; and determining an adaptation value by subtracting M2 from M1.
