System and method for establishing reliable data connectivity with a network node by a user equipment (UE) device

A user equipment (UE) device operable to establish reliable data connectivity with a network node, wherein said UE device can communicate with said network node in at least one of a first connection and a second connection, said first and second connections being effectuable over two different networks, comprising:

• means for constructing a message relating to a service feature that is to be executed at said network node, said means operating responsive to determining that said network node is not accessible via a first network using said first connection;
• and
• means for wrapping said message in a wrapper belonging to a second network and directing said wrapper to a dedicated network portion operable to forward said message to said network node over a trusted network portion.

A system operable to facilitate reliable data connectivity between a user equipment (UE) device and a network node, wherein said network node is rendered inaccessible to said UE device via a packet-switched connection, comprising:

• means for receiving a message relating to a service feature activated from said UE device, said service feature to be executed on said network node, said means for receiving operating to receive said message contained in a wrapper directed via a dedicated network portion;
• and
• means for processing said wrapper and packaging said message for transmission over a trusted network portion to said network node.
