A mobile station is configured to operate a reception of audio and/or visual content from a remote server of audio and/or visual contents connected to the network and to operate restitution of the audio and/or visual content, the content transiting, between the reception and the restitution, via a data reception buffer of the mobile station. The method includes i) triggering a sending, to a roaming management device of the network, of a first piece of information according to which roaming of the mobile station is prohibited, when a first quantity of data available in the reception buffer, lower than a first predetermined threshold, is detected, then, ii) triggering a sending, to the roaming management device, of a second piece of information according to which roaming of the mobile station is authorized, when a second quantity of data available in the reception buffer, greater than a second predetermined threshold, is detected.
A method for handling the roaming of a mobile station connected to a wireless access point among a plurality of wireless access points of a communication network, the mobile station being configured to operate a reception of an audio and/or visual content from a remote server of audio and/or visual contents connected to the communication network and to operate a rendering of the audio and/or visual content, the audio and/or visual content transiting, between the reception and the rendering, via a data reception buffer of the mobile station, the method being executed in at least a device connected to the communication network and wherein the method comprises:
A device configured to be connected to a communication network, the communication network comprising a mobile station configured to be connected to a wireless access point among a plurality of wireless access points of a communication network, and configured to operate a reception of an audio and/or visual content from a remote server of audio and/or visual contents connected to the communication network and to operate a rendering of the audio and/or visual content, the audio and/or visual content transiting, between the reception and the rendering, via a data buffer of the mobile station, the device comprising electronic and electromagnetic circuits configured for:
An audio and/or visual content transfer supervision device configured to be connected in a communication network and to handle an audio and/or visual content transfer from an audio and/or visual content server connected to the communication network to at least one mobile station connected to the communication network, the audio and/or visual content transfer supervision device comprising a connection interface to the communication network and electronic circuits configured for:
