1. A method comprising:
- receiving, via a first wireless interface of a mobile terminal, information from a mobile telecommunications network, the information associated with a geographic region;
processing the information;
configuring a set of access frequency bands for a second wireless interface of the mobile terminal in wireless communication based on the processing; and
wherein the processing determines whether one or more access frequency bands of the second wireless interface should be allowed based on the information.

Abstract
A method is disclosed for controlling a mobile terminal having a first wireless interface for cellular communication in a mobile telecommunications network and a second wireless interface for non-cellular wireless communication, such as wireless local area network (WLAN) communication, in at least one frequency band. In the mobile terminal, the following steps are performed. Information is received from the mobile telecommunications network, and the information is processed. Then, based on an outcome of the processing of the information, the second wireless interface is disabled from wireless communication in at least one frequency band.
