Multiple network mode selection devices
First Claim
1. A multiple network mode selection device, comprising:
- a processor;
a first radio module and a second radio module, both coupled to the processor and programmed to perform analog communication with a first radio network; and
an input device coupled to the processor;
a storage device coupled to the processor and storing one or more network determination processes;
wherein the processor is directed to perform;
simultaneously connecting the first radio module and the second radio module to the first radio network;
executing a network determination process selected from the one or more network determination processes;
in response to executing the network determination process, reprogramming the first radio module to perform analog communication with a second radio network, wherein the second radio network is incompatible with the first radio network; and
connecting the first radio module to the second radio network for at least some time while the second radio module remains connected to the first radio network.

Abstract
Systems and methods for multiple network mode selection devices in accordance with embodiments of the invention are disclosed. In one embodiment of the invention, a multiple network mode selection device includes a processor, a radio module connected to the processor, and network determination process storage connected to the processor and configured to store one or more network determination processes, wherein the processor is configured to connect to a first network using the radio module, execute a network determination process selected from the one or more network determination process, reprogram the radio module in response to the executed network determination process, and connect to a second network using the radio module, where the second network is separate from the first network.
