A communications system for providing packet data service to mobile stations (110) performs registration of the mobile station prior to engaging in packet data service. The registration procedure includes sending a request to register (300) to a DAP (113), transferring (302) subscriber data from a HLR (124) to a D-VLR (126), authenticating (306) the mobile subscriber, selecting a mobile data gateway (116) to service the mobile station, transferring (308) the subscriber data from the D-VLR to the mobile data gateway, and establishing (312) a packet data link between the mobile data gateway and the mobile station.
