A telecommunications network 100 having a Residential Gateway (RG) 121 and User Equipment (UE) 110, wherein UE 110 has a UE cellular access connection and a UE non-cellular access connection connecting to the Residential Gateway 121. If it is determined that the Residential Gateway 121 utilises a Residential Gateway cellular access connection for traffic for the UE 110 and that a traffic policy for the UE 110 and/or a traffic policy for the Residential Gateway 121 satisfies a traffic policy modification rule based on a network operator's goal, then the traffic policy is modified for the UE 110 and/or the Residential Gateway 121 relating to at least one of the UE cellular access connection and the Residential Gateway cellular access connection, wherein the modification is to meet the network operator's goal. Enforcement of the modified traffic policy is then initiated for the UE 110 and/or the modified traffic policy for the Residential Gateway 121. Modification of the traffic policy may include modification of access type preference, non-seamless offload indication and/or Access Traffic Steering, Switching and Splitting (ATSSS) policy.
