1. A method for managing network connectivity for a device, the method comprising:
detecting, by a connectivity platform, the device in response to powering on of the device, and establishing a connection with the device; detecting, by the connectivity platform, a plurality of networks, wherein the platform is independent of and agnostic to the device; determining, via the platform, a network policy relating to each of the plurality of networks; receiving, via the platform, signal information from the device, wherein the signal information relates to at least one of the plurality of networks; analyzing, via the platform, the network policy relating to each of the plurality of networks, and the signal information relating to the at least one of the plurality of networks, wherein the analyzing comprises at least one of:
(a) determining at least one policy implementation factor of the device and selecting an optimal network from the plurality of networks for connection with the device based on the at least one policy implementation factor;(b) determining a device state of the device and selecting an optimal network from the plurality of networks for connection with the device based on the device state; and(c) analyzing content being transmitted to or being requested by the device and selecting an optimal network from the plurality of networks for the content based on the network policy and the signal information relating to each of the plurality of networks; and providing, via the platform, an instruction to the device for establishing or maintaining a connection between the device and a first network of the plurality of networks based on the analyzing. |
