Routing a wireless connection across a hybrid network includes allowing a user to select a routing preference, routing the wireless connection via a short-haul communications network if the routing preference indicates a short-haul communications network choice, and routing the wireless connection via a cellular network if the routing preference indicates a cellular network choice. In addition, a system and method for learning the user's data, cellular, and/or VoIP access habits in order, to optimize the user's experience and one that allows carriers to comply with CALEA and E911 rules by identifying the location of hybrid devices within the hybrid network are disclosed.
