An UMA network controller is dedicated for an UMA mobile network including a CS core network and a PS core network with a SGSN. The UMA network controller includes a security gateway and a control means coupled to one another. The security gateway is arranged i) to ensure security procedures between mobile stations and the UMA world, ii) to forward messages relative to the control plane for the packet switched core network between mobile stations and the control means, and iii) to forward messages relative to the user plane for the packet switched core network between mobile stations and the a serving GPRS support node. The control means is intercalated between the security gateway and the serving GPRS support node and arranged for handling the control plane for the packet switched core network.
