Abstract
Disclosed are methods, devices and computer programs that enables a controlled activation and/or deactivation of multiplication/duplication transmissions where packets transmitted to a wireless device from a network node is multiplied/duplicated and transmitted from several network nodes to the wireless device. The methods, devices and computer programs are based on a quality indication that represents for the quality of the connections between a wireless device and different network units. Based on a quality indication obtained from the wireless device the network node(s) may initiate or terminate a multiplication/duplication transmission mode where packets are transmitted to the wireless device from several network nodes.
