A first network device in a network, such as an LTE network, configured to establish a default bearer between a node and the first network device. The first network device may transmit a first communication type between the first network device and the node over the a default bearer and receive a service request requesting the establishment of a dedicated bearer for the transmission of a second communication type between the first network device and the node, the service request requesting that the dedicated bearer have a quality of service higher than the quality of service of the default bearer. The first network device may transmit the second type of communication between the first network device and the node over the default bearer, establish the dedicated bearer, and then switch the transmission of the second type of communication from the default bearer to the dedicated bearer. |

1. A method comprising:
establishing, at a first network device in a network, a default bearer between a node and the first network device, the default bearer being associated with a first Access Point Name (APN) residing on a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), the node wirelessly interfacing with the WTRU, the default bearer having a quality of service; transmitting a first communication type between the first network device and the node over the default bearer; receiving, at the first network device, a service request, the service request requesting the establishment of a dedicated bearer for the transmission of a second communication type between the first network device and the node, the service request requesting that the dedicated bearer have a quality of service higher than the quality of service of the default bearer, the service request originating from a second APN residing on the WTRU; transmitting the second type of communication between the first network device and the node over the default bearer; establishing the dedicated bearer; and switching, after the dedicated bearer is established, the transmission of the second type of communication between the first network device and the node from the default bearer to the dedicated bearer. |
