A method for providing enhanced service in an IP-based core network having a collapsed wireless system architecture comprises using a modified proxy-call session control function in a broadband wireless router to monitor the IP-based core network and, based on the amount of available resources, either accepting a call or rejecting the call into the network. Additionally, depending on an amount of available resources in the IP-based core network a quality of a call-in-progress or a user application may be adjusted.
