Various methods and devices are provided to address the need to mitigate the effects of an overload and/or prevent an overload from cascading. In one method, devices are paged () according to a first paging policy regarding paging attempts. It is then determined () that a reduced availability condition exists for network equipment supporting the first paging policy. While this reduced availability condition exists, user equipment is paged () according to an adapted paging policy which is more limited in paging attempts than the first paging policy.
