Abstract
A method and arrangement for remotely controlling the communication of media between devices in different local networks () using a remote control device (). The remote control device obtains discovery information on a first device () and sends a remote access request over a multimedia service network to a home multimedia gateway () in the opposite local network () for a connection to a second device () therein. The home multimedia gateway then responds with communication parameters established for the second device in a residential gateway, and the remote control device can then order the first device to execute a multimedia session with the second device by using said communication parameters. This solution enables a remote control device visiting a local network to order a device in that network to fetch media content from a device in another home network, or vice versa.
