Abstract
A telecommunications system SYST including a local area network WLAN, a main network INTNW, and an intermediate element INTM through which data packets Dpo, Epi/Tepi must pass in transit between the local area network WLAN and the main network INTNW. The system evaluates a volume of calls supported by the local area network WLAN, and truncates data packets if said volume is above a predetermined threshold. In the event of an overload, the size of data packets in transit through the local area network is automatically reduced without recourse to systematic and discriminatory elimination of a particular type of data.
