Abstract: A telecommunication device configured to perform at least one of adjusting a network polling frequency, prompting a user to select one of a plurality of networks, automatically connecting to one of the networks, or automatically disconnecting from one of the networks is described herein. The telecommunication device performs the adjusting, prompting, or connecting based at least on received device data or network data that is associated with the networks.

Abstract: An intermediary device may be used to connect a telecommunications device to an existing secure network that is accessed by a computing device. The intermediary device may simplify connections to the secure network by connecting to the secure network without setting up a new connection to the secure network. The telecommunications device may connect to the computing device, via the intermediary device, using a secondary network, which enables the telecommunications device to access the secure network through the computing device. In some instances, the computing device may operate to bridge a connection with the telecommunications device and perform some or all of the functions of the intermediary device.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a user may associate a first communication type (e.g., Wi-Fi calling application) with a second communication type (e.g., standard ten-digit mobile telephone number), so that the user may have calls directed to an active communication type in a predetermined preference. In various embodiments, communication devices may become available (e.g., initiated) based on an activity of the user, such as by a location or proximity of the user, use of a device by the user, or for other reasons.

Abstract: A communications adapter is provided for use with or within a user device such as a personal communications device. The communications adapter includes a software defined radio, which can be dynamically configured to allow the user device to communicate with various different radio-enabled devices.
