Abstract
A mobile device that supports a plurality of SIM profiles each corresponding to a different wireless network, measures a current network quality of a first wireless network and obtains network quality information for a second wireless mobile peer device as measured by the mobile peer device. The mobile device switches from the first wireless network to the second wireless network based on the obtained network quality information from the mobile peer device and based on the current network quality of the first wireless network by the mobile device. The network quality measurement received from the mobile peer device is provided through a wireless peer to peer communication link such as a Bluetooth link or other suitable non-internet protocol peer to peer communication link. The mobile peer device also supports a plurality of SIM profiles. Corresponding methods are also described.
