The home roaming configuration server issues, via a secure transmission path connecting the home operator network and the visited operator network, a configuration command specifying a configuration command affecting handling of roaming operation of user equipment of the home operator by the visited operator. The visited roaming configuration server executes the configuration command to render a new roaming configuration for the visited operator wireless data network handling of roaming wireless data network service usage by the home operator user equipment. The visited roaming configuration server, via the secure transmission path, acknowledges the new roaming configuration for the visited operator wireless data network.
