A method implemented by a base station that supports a 3GPP radio access network, RAN, and is associated with a Wi-Fi RAN that is either supported by the base station or is supported by an access point that is colocated with the base station, the access point and the base station performing signaling with each other, the method comprising: receiving, from a user equipment, UE, via the 3GPP RAN, a Wi-Fi capability request for whether a Wi-Fi RAN with sufficient available resources to support Quality of Service, QoS, requirements of the UE is currently associated with the base station; determining, based on the Wi-Fi capability request, whether the associated Wi-Fi RAN has sufficient available resources to support the QoS requirement; and transmitting, via the 3GPP RAN, a corresponding response to the UE based on the determining which indicates whether the associated Wi-Fi RAN has sufficient available resources to support the QoS requirements of the UE; wherein if the response indicates that the associated Wi-Fi RAN has sufficient available resources to support the QoS requirements of the UE, the base station also transmits Wi-Fi credentials to the UE to enable the UE to access the associated Wi-Fi RAN; wherein if the response indicates that the associated Wi-Fi RAN does not have sufficient available resources to support the QoS requirements of the UE, the base station attempts to enable the UE to access the 3GPP RAN by proceeding to a Radio Resource Control, RRC, Connection Establishment cycle and does not transmit Wi-Fi credentials to the UE for the associated Wi-Fi RAN, if the UE is unable to establish a data session with the associated Wi-Fi RAN using the Wi-Fi credentials: - transmitting a request to the UE which requests that the UE delete the Wi-Fi credentials without establishing a data session with the associated Wi-Fi RAN; - attempting to enable the UE to access the 3GPP RAN; and if the UE is able to establish a data session with the associated Wi-Fi RAN using the Wi-Fi credentials, transmitting a request to the UE which requests that the UE delete the Wi-Fi credentials once the data session is terminated or handed over. receiving, from a user equipment, UE, via the 3GPP RAN, a Wi-Fi capability request for whether a Wi-Fi RAN with sufficient available resources to support Quality of Service, QoS, requirements of the UE is currently associated with the base station; determining, based on the Wi-Fi capability request, whether the associated Wi-Fi RAN has sufficient available resources to support the QoS requirement; and transmitting, via the 3GPP RAN, a corresponding response to the UE based on the determining which indicates whether the associated Wi-Fi RAN has sufficient available resources to support the QoS requirements of the UE; wherein if the response indicates that the associated Wi-Fi RAN has sufficient available resources to support the QoS requirements of the UE, the base station also transmits Wi-Fi credentials to the UE to enable the UE to access the associated Wi-Fi RAN; wherein if the response indicates that the associated Wi-Fi RAN does not have sufficient available resources to support the QoS requirements of the UE, the base station attempts to enable the UE to access the 3GPP RAN by proceeding to a Radio Resource Control, RRC, Connection Establishment cycle and does not transmit Wi-Fi credentials to the UE for the associated Wi-Fi RAN, if the UE is unable to establish a data session with the associated Wi-Fi RAN using the Wi-Fi credentials: - transmitting a request to the UE which requests that the UE delete the Wi-Fi credentials without establishing a data session with the associated Wi-Fi RAN; - attempting to enable the UE to access the 3GPP RAN; and - transmitting a request to the UE which requests that the UE delete the Wi-Fi credentials without establishing a data session with the associated Wi-Fi RAN; - attempting to enable the UE to access the 3GPP RAN; and if the UE is able to establish a data session with the associated Wi-Fi RAN using the Wi-Fi credentials, transmitting a request to the UE which requests that the UE delete the Wi-Fi credentials once the data session is terminated or handed over.
