Abstract
Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for a media device operating on a first network that can detect and switch media service to a second network to maintain access of a desired service quality. The media device can cause a presentation of the recommended second network, and receive a selection (e.g., user input) of the second network before the switch. The recommendation can be user-initiated or occur while accessing service without user initiation. The recommendation of the second network can be based on: a signal quality of the second network and/or the capabilities of the device providing the second network; a correlation of characteristics that indicate that stored credentials of a first network can be reused in another network; a security level of the first network; and/or platform capabilities of the media device.
