Facilitating mobile device self-optimizing technology selection thresholds in a wireless communication system

An apparatus, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
• generating, at a first time, first information in a repository of information specific to and stored at the apparatus, wherein the first information comprises an identifier for a first access point device and a determined acceptable signal strength usable to obtain an acceptable jitter value between the apparatus and the first access point device;
• initiating a defined type of communication via the first access point device, at a second time, based on a first determination that a detected signal strength at a third time satisfies a defined condition relative to the acceptable signal strength, wherein the second time is after the first time and wherein the third time is between the first time and the second time;
• and
• based on a second determination that a detected signal strength at the third time fails to satisfy the defined condition relative to the acceptable signal strength and in response to identifying a change in the detected signal strength to at least the determined acceptable signal strength, switching from being connected to a network device to the first access point device to initiate the defined type of communication via the first access point device.
