Abstract: A system for reducing wireless telecommunications network resources required to successfully route calls to a wireline network of the present invention. A first mechanism routes a call originated from a wireless party connected to a wireless network to a wireline party connected to a wireline network. A second mechanism determines if the wireline network is congested in response to the mechanism for routing and provides a signal in response thereto. A third mechanism selectively queues the call in response to the signal. A fourth mechanism connects the wireless party to the wireline party when the call reaches a front of the queue and the wireline network can accept the call. In a specific embodiment, the first mechanism for routing the call includes a mobile switching center in communication with a base station or base station controller. The base station or base station controller communicates with a mobile station associated with the wireless party.
