Methods, systems, and devices are described for network selection by a mobile device that enables a network selection based, at least in part, on a network access policy that indicates use of a radio access technology (RAT) based on one or more network characteristics. The network access policy may be selectively applied based on one or more predetermined conditions, such as a time of day, mobile device location, RAT access cost, roaming status, subscription profile, and/or data usage, for example, In some examples, when the network access policy is applied, the mobile device may be configured to select from among a number of access nodes that may operate using different RATs, such as cellular access node(s) or Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) access node(s). Communications may be established with a selected access node based at least in part on network conditions such as available bandwidth for an access node. |
