Disclosed are methods as well radio network nodes and user equipments (UE) that are suitable for overload control in a communication network. A radio network node may, upon receiving a random access preamble from a UE, determine whether there exists a condition indicative of the radio network node having insufficient resources to respond properly to all random access preambles received by the radio network node. Also, in response to a determination that such condition exists, the radio network node may include in a MAC PDU, a request to extend the time period during which the UE waits for reception of a MAC RAR response. The radio network node may also transmit this MAC PDU including this request to the UE. |
