The method is used for resequencing cells of a cell-stream which are forwarded through a cell-switching network. This cell-switching network includes an input element, at least one switching element and at least one resequencing device all interconnected by links. The cells of the cell-stream are received by the input-element, whereafter the input-element marks the cells of the cell-stream by putting a timestamp in these cells. Then the cells are forwarded to the at least one switching element and subsequently routed through this at least one switching element towards the at least one connected resequencing device, which resequences, at least a part of the cells of the cell-stream, based on the value of the time-stamp inside the cells and on a highest age of the cells of the cell-stream. This age is determined by the at least one switching element and is subsequently forwarded towards the resequencing device of the cell switching network.
