A method of operating a base station node (28) of a radio access network (22) comprises communicating information over a radio interface (32) between the base station node (28) and a wireless terminal (30) which operates with discontinuous reception (DRX). The base station node (28) determines if the base station node is or may become unsynchronized with a current discontinuous reception (DRX) state of the wireless terminal (30). If so, the base station node (28) resynchronizes operation or takes preventative action to maintain synchronized operation of the base station node (28) with the current discontinuous reception (DRX) state of the wireless terminal (30). The basic method may be practice in either a reactive mode, a proactive mode, or a combined proactive and reactive mode.
