Claim:
1. An avionics communication management system comprising: an avionic mobile computer device capable of transmitting and receiving communication traffic while moving among a plurality of different communication paths; an ISDN interface and two or more simultaneous network interfaces to allow multiple avionic systems to operate on an aircraft wherein a satellite communication link allows simultaneous use of two or more of Inmarsat, Swiftbroadband, Swift64, Ku-Band, and Ka-Band satellite connections to deterministically forward data communications over two or more of said communication links based on preset policies by a user; and a ground based mobile computer management device in communication with the avionic mobile computer device, the avionic mobile computer device managing moving location information of the avionic mobile computer device and available communication path and transmitting data packets based on a connection prioritization, an aircraft avionic network being assigned as an aircraft mobile node and said aircraft based mobile node communicating with a mobile computer management device connected with a ground based home network or home node, an avionic mobile computer establishing one or more IP tunnels to said mobile computer management device connected with said home network and said avionic mobile computer monitoring and managing traffic over one or more of said IP tunnels; and an onboard data communication router device adapted to route accelerated and non-accelerated signals and increase effective network capacity of ground to air and air to ground communication systems, the onboard data communication router device including QoS/Prioritization to locate bandwidth per device or person and prevents a single device from consuming all available bandwidth as well as prioritizing traffic for a VVIP.
