Abstract
A wireless router device is configured to detect a fault that would prohibit wireless communications between the router and a wireless wide area network. A message, referred to herein as a termination message, is then generated. The termination message contains information describing the fault and is configured to cause termination of wireless communication with the wireless wide area network. The wireless router than transmits the termination message to at least one base transceiver station that is part of the wireless wide area network. The base transceiver station is then able to assess and reallocate resources, including power management, based on the fault information contained in the received termination message.
