Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé d'adaptation d'une connexion entre un prestataire de services et une station mobile disposant d'une pluralité d'interfaces d'accès radio différentes. La station mobile est connectée à un prestataire de services au moyen d'une des interfaces d'accès radio, par l'intermédiaire d'un fournisseur de réseau. Le prestataire de services sélectionne un fournisseur de réseau et/ou une interface d'accès radio en fonction d'un paramètre de services. Le prestataire de services transmet, par l'intermédiaire de l'interface d'accès radio et du fournisseur de réseau, au moyen duquel la station mobile est connectée au prestataire de services, une instruction de sélection à la station mobile. Un changement de l'interface d'accès radio employée pour la connexion avec le prestataire de services et/ou du fournisseur de réseau employé pour la connexion avec le prestataire de services est déclenché dans la station mobile sous l'effet de l'instruction de sélection.
