Methods, systems, and devices are described for assessing the quality of end-to-end connectivity for a wireless communication device. Data generated from at least one of existing traffic and networking operations caused by existing traffic of the wireless communication device may be monitored to obtain information related to connectivity quality. One or more values of one or more metrics may be determined using the obtained information. The quality of end-to-end connectivity for the wireless communication device may be assessed using the value(s) of the metric(s). Based at least in part on a result of the assessment, an action may be performed to improve connectivity quality for the wireless communication.

Determination of end-to-end transport quality

Methods, systems, and devices are described for determining a quality estimation of a wireless network that may be used to determine whether a particular wireless network meets one or more criteria for association with a station. The quality estimation may be based on a load quality of a basic service set (BSS) of an available wireless network and/or one or more wide area network (WAN) metrics associated with the wireless network. A station may evaluate such load quality and WAN metrics prior to association, and/or after association with a wireless network.
