Multi-tier quality of service wireless communications networks

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having instructions stored thereon, the instructions, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform a method comprising:

• determining a quality of service (“QoS”) level associated with a first client communication device, the QoS level corresponding to a first operational mode of service supported by a service provider;
• determining whether the QoS level associated with the first client communication device correlates with a QoS level associated with a second client communication device;
• in response to the determining, when the QoS levels associated with the first and second client communication devices correlate, enabling cellular communication between the first and second client communication devices;
• and
• in response to the determining, when the QoS levels associated with the first and second client communication devices do not correlate, enabling cellular communication between the first and second client communication devices by changing the first operational mode of service to a higher or lower tier of service supported by the service provider;
• in which:
• the QoS level associated with the second client communication device corresponds to a second operational mode of service supported by another service provider;
• and
• determining whether the QoS level associated with the first client communication device correlates with the QoS level associated with the second client communication device includes evaluating whether the first and second operational modes of service have an exact match;
• wherein:
• when there is not an exact match and there is a determination that the QoS levels associated with the first and second client communication devices correlate in accordance with a predetermined threshold, enabling the cellular communication includes commencing communication between the first and second client communication devices without service level intervention by a network device.
