    Abstract: The embodiments herein relate to methods, an access point and a network node for service quality assessment in a network environment. According to a method, the access point receives, from a user equipment, a request for a service; and determines a service quality identifier based on the requested service. The access point sends, to a network node of a service provider, the service request including the service quality identifier. The network node analyzes the received service quality identifier for determining whether or not the requested service can be supported. If the requested service can be supported, the network node transmits a response to the user equipment informing that the service can be supported over the access point. If the requested service cannot be supported, the network node transmits a response to the user equipment instructing the user or the user equipment to select another access point.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for determining identification information on a user of a user terminal including a subscription of a second network, wherein the user terminal is requesting access to a first network. In the method an access request message is received from an entity controlling at least pertly the access to the first network and an identification request message is delivered to the user terminal. The user terminal is configured to return an indication of identification and if the indication is positive, pre-agreed piece of information is retrieved from a location accessible to the server. The pre-agreed piece of information is delivered to the entity controlling the access to the first network in order to provide an access to the first network. Also disclosed is a server, a user terminal and a computer program product.
