Using a time dependent selfconsistent model for vertical sequential tunneling,we study the appearance of charge instabilities that lead to the formation of electric field domains in a weakly coupled doped superlattice in the presence of high magnetic fields parallel to the transport direction. The interplay between the high non linearity of the system --coming from the Coulomb interaction-- and the inter-Landau-level scattering at the domain walls (regions of charge accumulation inside the superlattice) gives rise to new unstable negative differential conductance regions and extra stable branches in the sawtooth-like I-V curves.
