Abstract

A method relating to the management of at least one dynamic virtual connection between a mobile terminal and a communication network is disclosed. In one aspect, one or more dynamic virtual connections are arranged between the mobile terminal and a gateway, each having at least one connection parameter. The method including detecting the connection of the terminal to another base station, connected to a subsequent gateway to which the terminal was not previously connected. It includes the creation, via a subsequent quality of service manager connected to the subsequent gateway, of dynamic virtual connections between the mobile terminal and the subsequent gateway, the number of dynamic virtual connections created being equal to the number of preceding dynamic virtual connections and the connection parameters of the dynamic virtual connections created being identical to the connection parameters of the preceding dynamic virtual connections.
