Patent number: 12684401Abstract: Techniques for selecting a wireless connection based on network metrics are discussed herein. For example, user equipment (UE) can be connected to a Wi-Fi network. The UE may test the Wi-Fi connection to determine metrics associated with the Wi-fi connection. The UE may compare the metrics to a speed and/or bandwidth threshold. If the Wi-fi connection speed is below a threshold, the UE may determine metrics associated with a cellular connection to determine whether to switch to a different cellular connection. If a first metric of the candidate cellular connection is above a threshold (e.g., a power level threshold), the UE can determine a speed or bandwidth of the connection. If the speed or bandwidth is above a threshold, the UE can attach to the cellular connection and can send and/or receive data using the newly established connection.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2023Date of Patent: July 14, 2026Assignee: T-Mobile USA, Inc.Inventors: Sharath Somashekar, Mason Tyler Bouffard, Oscar R.
