Abstract
A system and method for Wi-Fi roaming management, comprising an agent application operating on a mobile device in background operation to monitor device state and operation and listen for notification events prompting a network action. Network actions may include performing network tests or disconnecting, reconnecting, or updating a network connection to ensure roaming is being handled properly and the device is connected to a desired access point.
