Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods and computer program products for minimizing data overhead in a cellular network. In some embodiments a method includes receiving, by a base station of the cellular network, location information associated with a mobile device. The method may include determining, by the base station, a location of the mobile device based on the location information; and determining, by the base station, an offload alternative connection point based on the determined location of the mobile device. In some cases, the method includes disconnecting the mobile device from a current connection point; and connecting the mobile device to the offload alternative connection point.
