Abstract: A method for a fallback core network node within core network nodes for a first mobile terminated call towards a mobile subscriber initially assigned to a failing ore network node (failing CNN). The method includes receiving data associated to International Mobile Subscriber Identity and Location Area Identifier (LAI) of a mobile subscriber handled in the failing CNN. The method includes receiving a service request from a home location register (HLR), whereby the service request indicates that the fallback CNN is acting as a fallback CNN for the failing CNN, and sending a response to the service request towards the HLR comprising the roaming Number assigned by the fallback CNN. The method includes initiating a paging request towards the radio network comprising said received LAI of said mobile subscriber, and sending a Service Request towards the HLR comprising the Mobile Station Integrated Services Digital Network Number of the mobile subscriber.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a first network node and a method in the first network node and a charging node and a method in the charging node for handling dropped data packets in a communications network, comprising: obtaining information indicating dropped data packets for a wireless device served by the first network node; detecting based on the obtained information that an amount associated with the dropped data packets reaches a first threshold or that a timer associated with the dropped data packets reaches a second threshold; and transmitting a message to a policy node, which message comprises at least one of information indicating the amount associated with the dropped data packets or information indicating that the amount has reached the first threshold or indicating that the timer has reached the second threshold.
