Abstract: The invention relates to a method for updating a wireless device connected to a cellular network utilizing Instant Messaging and Presence Service protocol (IMPS) defined by open Mobile Alliance. In the method a server connected to the cellular network transmits a configuration message to the wireless device including a CIDPrefix, which includes a provider specific identity string. The wireless device which has received the configuration message adds to the provider-specific identity string separation marks and a supplier-specific internal identity string. After that the wireless device uses this concatenated identity string as a ClientID with the server which sent the configuration message. The invention relates also to a configuration message, wireless device, server and device management system utilizing the method. The invention relates also to computer programs implementing the method in a server and a wireless device.

Abstract: The invention is a system and method of initiating a communication which is transmitted by a packet data network (14), containing an optional gateway (24) and a plurality of gatekeepers (GK) to a wireless terminal (18) in one of a plurality of wireless systems. A method in accordance with the invention includes processing information relating to the communication to determine at least one area in which the communication is to be broadcast to the wireless terminal; identifying from the at least one area at least one associated destination gatekeeper to which a message should be transmitted from the gateway to initiate the communication and to which the communication is transmitted; transmitting the message from the gateway to the at least one associated destination gatekeeper; and transmitting the message from the at least one associated destination gatekeeper to at least one of the plurality of wireless systems.
