Patent ID: 10200943

Abstract:
In a telecommunication network, a method is carried out for assisting a user terminal (100) in connecting to an access network. The user terminal (100) obtains (s20) information (50), i.e. “tag information”, from an electronic tag or a visual tag. The user terminal (100) transmits (s40), to a network node hosting an access network discovery and selection function (ANDSF), i.e. to an “ANDSF node” (200), the tag information (50). The ANDSF node (200) then transmits (s60), to the user terminal (100), credentials (70) for allowing the user terminal (100) to connect to said access network. The invention also relates to methods carried out by a user terminal (100), to methods carried out by an ANDSF node (200), to user terminals (100), to ANDSF nodes (200), to computer programs, and to computer program products for assisting user terminals (100) in connecting to an access network.
