Abstract
Methods and apparatus that relate to the display of network availability and quality of service (QoS) to a user of a multiple mode communication device are disclosed. An example method, obtains a quality of service QoS metric for a call routed through a first communication provider to a second communication provider, wherein the QoS metric represents a service quality provided by the first communication provider. Further, the representation of the QoS metric for the first communication provider is provided to a user. Additionally, the user can select a mode of communication for a communication device once the QoS metric has been established.
