Abstract
A method and system for selectively re-initiating bearer connections upon communication failure. In a scenario where a gateway provides connectivity with an application server for numerous user equipment devices (UEs), when gateway communication with the application server fails, a determination may be made as to which UEs recently missed communication from the application server, and those determined UEs may be paged to re-initiate their bearer connections and to re-establish gateway registration with an appropriate application server.
