On the basis of predetermined decision criterions, the multinetwork terminal itself decides in which of the accessible telecommunications networks communication shall take place. The invention also relates to a multinetwork terminal having a control unit (32) and network switching means controlled by the control unit for activation of communication devices (30, 31) in the selected telecommunications network.
