Abstract
A wireless device and method detect a current signal strength of each of a number of wireless networks, determine an expected end-to-end data speed for each of the wireless networks using wireless network end-to-end data speed information that was historically compiled from prior connections with the wireless networks and using the detected current signal strength of each of the wireless networks. The wireless device and method connects to at least one wireless network based on the determined expected end-to-end data speed and/or provides a user interface that includes the determined expected end-to-end data speed and the detected signal strength indication of each of the wireless networks.
