25. A radio network controller comprising:
-
a first radio node server module configured to establish a session with a first access terminal;
a storage device configured to store at least a portion of the session information that is sufficient to reestablish the session; and
a control mechanism configured to cause a second radio node server module device to reestablish the session with the access terminal after detecting a degradation of the session between the first radio node server module and the access terminal. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41)

42. A method for reestablishing breached sessions in a wireless communications network, the method comprising:
-
placing a first session that has been breached in a queue for reestablishment of the first session;
placing a second session that has been breached in the queue for reestablishment of the second session, wherein the second session is prioritized below the first session in the queue; and
promoting the second session above the first session in the queue in response to receiving a request to transmit data to an access terminal associated with the second session. - View Dependent Claims (43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50)
