ABSTRACT:
A method for supporting mobility in a wireless telecommunication system which comprises at least one terminal, an access point currently serving the terminal and a plurality of other access points. The access points may be grouped into networks and the terminal is arranged to collect information about available access points. The network names of the available access points are checked by the terminal. The first access point with the best connection attributes of the available access points with the same network name as the currently serving access point is selected. The second access point with the best connection attributes of the available access points with a different network name than the currently serving access point is also selected. One or more connection attributes of the first access point and the second access point are compared. The connection to the second access point is established if the differences between the compared connection attributes fulfil pre-determined conditions.
