A terminal device for use with a telecommunications network, the terminal device comprising receiver circuitry, transmitter circuitry and processing circuitry, wherein the processing circuitry is configured: to control the receiver circuitry to receive data from infrastructure equipment of the network via a first communication path through the network; to control the transmitter circuitry to transmit, via a second, different, communication path through the network, a request to infrastructure equipment of the network requesting information identifying an element of the network configured to perform a predetermined process associated with the transmission of the data to the receiver circuitry; to control the receiver circuitry to receive, from infrastructure equipment of the network via the second communication path, a signal identifying the element of the network configured to perform the predetermined process associated with the transmission of the data to the receiver circuitry; and to monitor whether a predetermined condition associated with the reception of the data by the receiver circuitry is met and, when it is determined that the predetermined condition is met, to control the transmitter circuitry to transmit a request to infrastructure equipment of the network requesting the identified element of the network to perform the predetermined process associated with the transmission of the data to the receiver circuitry.
