Abstract: A method and communications network is provided that directly routes a call from a calling party to a called mobile party using an IP network. More specifically, the method includes the step of determining at the IP network as to whether the called mobile party is currently roaming outside a home mobile network. In response to an affirmative determination, an address of a destination mobile network currently occupied by the called mobile party is obtained at the IP network, and the call between the calling party and the called mobile party is connected using the IP network and the destination mobile network while bypassing the home mobile network. In response to a negative determination, an address of the home mobile network is obtained at the IP network, and the call between the calling party and the called mobile party is connected using the IP network and the home mobile network.
