Abstract

A system includes a device configured to be connected to a first node and a second node. The first and second nodes are located in different entities in a wireless network, a controller configured to cause initiation and establishment of a multi-link connection. The multi-link has at least two links connecting the device with the first and/or the second node. Each link is configured to communicate with the first node and/or the second node. The first node is configured to transmit a request for establishing the connection to the second node. The second node is configured to cause and transmit a confirmation for establishing the connection to the first node and/or the device at reception of the request. The first node and second nodes, at establishment of the connection, are configured to function as a node entity associated with the device and to cause communication with the device over the connection.
