Abstract: A system and method of providing Internet access to a roaming mobile subscriber located in a visited service area served by a serving MSC of a radio telecommunications network. The radio telecommunications network includes a home service node which comprises a Home Location Register (HLR) and a Service Control Point (SCP). The home service node stores a subscriber service category associated with the mobile subscriber for identifying an Internet Service Provider preferred by the mobile subscriber. An ISP database associated with the identified ISP is coupled to the home service node. When the roaming mobile subscriber initiates an Internet access service while located in the visited service area, the serving MSC sends a message to the home service node in response thereto.
