A method is provided for use by a user terminal (20) operating an IP-based multimedia broadcast/multicast service. The method comprises storing (S3) information relating to user service registrations performed (S2) using an IP connection such as a Packet Data Protocol, PDP, context established to enable connectivity between the user terminal (20) and a service node (40) for the broadcast/multicast service. The information is of a type to enable re-registration (S7) of at least some of any of the user services affected by a loss of the IP connection. In one embodiment, the multimedia broadcast/multicast service is a 3GPP Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service, MBMS, the user terminal (20) is a User Equipment, UE, and the service node (40) is a Broadcast/Multicast Service Center, BM-SC. In another embodiment, the multimedia broadcast/multicast service is an Open Mobile Alliance Broadcast, OMA BCAST, service, the user terminal (20) is a Terminal, and the service node (40) is an OMA BCAST Subscription Management, BSM, node. |
