1. A system comprising:
- a user device configured to communicate with an application server over a network;
a plurality of network elements in communication with one another over the network, each of said plurality of network elements having at least one parameter representative of network behavior; and
an adaptive server in communication with said user device and at least one of said network elements, said adaptive server configured to estimate a connectivity time with the application server based on the at least one parameter.

Abstract
A system includes a user device configured to communicate with an application server over a network. A plurality of network elements are in communication with one another over the network, and each of the plurality of network elements have at least one parameter representative of network behavior. An adaptive server is in communication with the user device, the application server, and at least one of the network elements. The adaptive server is configured to estimate a connectivity time with the application server based on the parameter.
