Abstract

A method and computing system for monitoring a data signal quality level for a wireless client electronic device. The data signal quality level is indicative of the level of data connectivity between the wireless client electronic device and a wireless data network. A cellular signal strength level is monitored for the wireless client electronic device. The cellular signal strength level is indicative of the level of cellular connectivity between the wireless client electronic device and a cellular network. A request for voice communication with the wireless client electronic device is received. If the cellular signal strength level is not sufficient to support the voice communication and the data signal quality level is sufficient to support the voice communication, the voice communication with the wireless client electronic device via the wireless data network is enabled.
