Abstract
A method of registration in a telecommunications system by a mobile station, which system includes a home location register for maintaining subscriber data and supports a first network, such as GSM, and a second network, such as GPRS. The home location register maintains the mobile subscriber data and a message is sent to the home location register for requesting the mobile subscriber data. The home location register maintains an access parameter which indicates whether the mobile subscriber is entitled to use the first network, the second network or both networks. In response to said message for requesting the subscriber data, the home location register sends the mobile subscriber data and also the access parameter. The network element that requested the mobile subscriber data uses said access parameter for restricting the access of the mobile subscriber only to a circuit-switched network and/or to a packet-switched network.
