Abstract
This disclosure relates to techniques for avoiding denial of service in a wireless communication system. A wireless device may unsuccessfully attempt to obtain cellular service. Based at least in part on cause information for the unsuccessful attempt to obtain cellular service, and potentially also based at least in part on cause information for one or more previous unsuccessful attempts to obtain cellular service, the wireless device may selectively determine to disable one or more features at the wireless device, bar a cell on which the unsuccessful attempt to obtain cellular service is made, bar a public land mobile network on which the unsuccessful attempt to obtain cellular service is made, and/or bar a radio access technology according to which the unsuccessful attempt to obtain cellular service is made and perform a subsequent attempt to obtain cellular service.
