Summary:There are provided mechanisms for traffic steering between a first radio access network node and a second radio access network node. A method is performed by a system. The method includes obtaining, for each of the first radio access network node and the second radio access network node, a respective predicted traffic throughput for a wireless device. The wireless device is in dual connectivity with the first radio access network node and the second radio access network node. The method includes determining splitting of transmission of a flow of data destined for the wireless device between the first radio access network node and the second radio access network node according to the obtained predicted traffic throughputs. The method includes initiating traffic steering of the flow of data between the first radio access network node and the second radio access network node according to the splitting.
