Method and apparatus for handling connections between wireless network nodes and wireless devices

A method is disclosed for handling connections between a wireless device (120, 130) and a first wireless network node (110), of a serving network (150) in a wireless communications network (100). The wireless device (120, 130) is connected to the first WNN (110). The wireless communications network (100) further comprises a neighbor network (160) comprising a second WNN (140). The method comprises obtaining (202) a roaming priority indication, RPI, associated with the wireless device (120, 130), indicating that the wireless device (120, 130) has a higher priority for transfer of its network connection than another WD without priority. The method comprises obtaining (204) information that the neighbor network (160) is a network to which the RPI applies, and obtaining (206) measurements related to at least one the connection between the WD (120, 130) and the first WNN (110), and a wireless communications link between the WD (120, 130) and the second WNN (140), and, based on the obtained measurements, the obtained information and the RPI, initiating (208) a transfer of the WD's (120, 130) network connection from the first WNN (110) to the second WNN (140).
