Systems and methods for self-configuring wireless device initializations

A network device, the device comprising:

• a radio module that includes a plurality of wireless service support circuits, wherein each of the plurality of wireless service support circuits includes modules that configure the radio module to establish wireless network communication links over at least one band of a wireless network operator;
• initialization logic coupled to the radio module;
• and
• a network service preference policy stored in a memory coupled to the initialization logic;
• wherein, upon initialization of the device, the initialization logic performs a survey of one or more wireless services received by the radio module and compares results of the survey against the network service preference policy;
• and
• wherein the initialization logic activates a first of the plurality of wireless service support circuits associated with a first wireless service of the one or more wireless services when the survey indicates that the first wireless signal satisfies the network service preference policy;
• wherein the network service preference policy comprises:
• a primary carrier acceptance thresholds component;
• and
• a primary carrier candidate preference priority component;
• wherein the primary carrier acceptance thresholds component of the network service preference policy defines acceptance criteria for one or more wireless signal parameters;
• wherein the primary carrier candidate preference priority component indicates a preferred wireless network for the initialization logic to select;
• and
• wherein the primary carrier acceptance thresholds component and the primary carrier candidate preference priority component are both either locally or remotely reprogrammable.
