Abstract:
An apparatus, system, and method for selecting a connection for a real time application. In one embodiment, a mobile device may communicate with a cellular network over a cellular connection and a WiFi network over a WiFi connection. The mobile device may determine backhaul data of the WiFi connection. The mobile device may generate a plurality of statistics from the backhaul data to generate backhaul statistics. Based on the plurality of statistics passing one or more thresholds, the mobile device may select the WiFi connection for use in a real-time application of the mobile device.
