In a high data rate communication system, a method and apparatus for efficiently establishing a connection between an access terminal and an access network using a fast access channel and a fast access indicator. Upon receiving a fast access indicator (406) in response to a fast access probe (404), an access terminal begins transmitting a traffic channel signal (408) containing data rate control (DRC) information. The DRC information is used by the access network to transmit messages such as a traffic channel assignment message (410) at the requested DRC rate. |
