Subject of the present invention is a method and a related device used to access an internet network. The network contains at least two hosts, coupled to this network, a first and a second host. Besides these hosts there is a name system and an access node, both connected to the Internet network. If the first host wants to contact the second host, this first host will request the name system for the Internet address. The name system will search, based on the host name of the second host for the Internet address of this host. If this second host is not active, the present invention facilitates that the name server requests the access node to establish a connection between this access node and the second host. The access node will also assign then an internet address to this second host. Subsequently the access node will forward the assigned internet address of the second host to the name system which on its turn will forward the assigned internet address to the requesting, first host. Now, by using the assigned internet address, the first host is able to contact the second host.
