Реферат: A Wireless Local Area Network, WLAN, node and a method performed by the WLAN node (110) for assisting a Station, STA, (120) in selecting a WLAN connection for the STA (120) is provided. The WLAN node (110) provides a first WLAN, e.g. public WLAN, and a second WLAN, e.g. private WLAN, with overlapping coverage, the first WLAN providing connections for a first number of STAs and the second WLAN providing connections for a second number of STAs, whereby the second number of STAs is a subset of the first number of STAs. The second number of STAs is being authorized to connect to the second WLAN. The method comprises detecting (401), at the WLAN node (110), that the STA (120) connected to or trying to connect to the first WLAN of the WLAN node (110) is authorized to access the second WLAN of the WLAN node (110) and sending (402) a message to the STA (120) comprising an indication to the STA (120) to connect to the second WLAN of the WLAN node (110).
