For supporting an access to a destination network by a mobile device via a wireless access network, the mobile device generates a predetermined request, which is addressed to a connectivity test server in the destination network. The predetermined request is transmitted to the wireless access network. In case the predetermined request reaches the connectivity test server, it generates a predetermined response and transmits it to the mobile device via the wireless access network. The mobile device determines whether a response to the predetermined request is received from the wireless access network and whether a received response corresponds to the predetermined response.

Supporting an access to a destination network via a wireless access network

Providing a dial-up connection in a packet radio system comprising at least one mobile termination part, a terminal equipment part functionally connected thereto, and a packet radio network. A first packet data protocol context is activated between the packet radio network and the mobile termination part for reception and transmission of packet-switched data. A second packet data protocol context is activated between the packet radio network and the mobile termination part for a dial-up connection. The first context is deactivated in response to the second context being activated. The second context is deactivated in response to the dial-up connection being released. A third packet data protocol context, substantially conforming to the first context, is activated in response to the second context being deactivated.

Providing a dial-up connection in a packet radio system

A method for arranging a packet radio service in a wireless telecommunication system comprising at least one mobile station. The method comprises activating in the mobile station at least one packet data context for packet-switched data transmission of an application in the mobile station. In the mobile station, a busy condition is automatically set for the packet data context for suspension situations. When the packet data context in the mobile station is requested to be suspended, the packet data context is prevented from being suspended in response to the packet data context suspension request being received from outside the application.
