A method performed by a network node in communication with a first wireless device, the network node and the first wireless device operating in a wireless communications network, the method comprising: determining whether or not a random access procedure for the first wireless device was successful, the determining being performed after the following actions in the random access procedure: a) a first Physical Downlink Control Channel, PDCCH, order indicating a non-reserved signal has been sent to the first wireless device, the signal being one of: a preamble, a tone and a subcarrier, and b) a Layer 2/Layer 3, L2/L3, message has been received after the sending of the first PDCCH order, and wherein the determining is based on verifying whether or not the L2/L3 message originated in the first wireless device, wherein the verifying whether or not the L2/L3 message originated in the first wireless device is based on at least one of: i. a first result of attempting (401_1) to decode, for one or more attempts, the L2/L3 message using a Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier,C-RNTI, the C-RNTI having been assigned to the first wireless device prior to the first PDCCH order having been sent, ii. a second result of attempting (401_2) to decode the L2/L3 message using a Temporary C-RNTI indicated by the network node to the first wireless device in response to receiving the signal from the first wireless device, and iii. a third result of determining (401_3) whether or not the L2/L3 message comprises a contention resolution identity for a second wireless device. determining whether or not a random access procedure for the first wireless device was successful, the determining being performed after the following actions in the random access procedure: a) a first Physical Downlink Control Channel, PDCCH, order indicating a non-reserved signal has been sent to the first wireless device, the signal being one of: a preamble, a tone and a subcarrier, and b) a Layer 2/Layer 3, L2/L3, message has been received after the sending of the first PDCCH order, and a) a first Physical Downlink Control Channel, PDCCH, order indicating a non-reserved signal has been sent to the first wireless device, the signal being one of: a preamble, a tone and a subcarrier, and b) a Layer 2/Layer 3, L2/L3, message has been received after the sending of the first PDCCH order, and wherein the determining is based on verifying whether or not the L2/L3 message originated in the first wireless device, wherein the verifying whether or not the L2/L3 message originated in the first wireless device is based on at least one of: i. a first result of attempting (401_1) to decode, for one or more attempts, the L2/L3 message using a Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier,C-RNTI, the C-RNTI having been assigned to the first wireless device prior to the first PDCCH order having been sent, ii. a second result of attempting (401_2) to decode the L2/L3 message using a Temporary C-RNTI indicated by the network node to the first wireless device in response to receiving the signal from the first wireless device, and iii. a third result of determining (401_3) whether or not the L2/L3 message comprises a contention resolution identity for a second wireless device. i. a first result of attempting (401_1) to decode, for one or more attempts, the L2/L3 message using a Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier,C-RNTI, the C-RNTI having been assigned to the first wireless device prior to the first PDCCH order having been sent, ii. a second result of attempting (401_2) to decode the L2/L3 message using a Temporary C-RNTI indicated by the network node to the first wireless device in response to receiving the signal from the first wireless device, and iii. a third result of determining (401_3) whether or not the L2/L3 message comprises a contention resolution identity for a second wireless device.
