1. A system for providing alternate wireless and network service in remote or isolated captive environments where available wireless communication options are limited and/or bandwidth constrained, said system comprising:

  • a) a wireless telecommunications device;

    b) a network translation application installed on said wireless telecommunications device;

    c) said network translation application being programmed to interface through a wireless communications network to an application server;

    d) said application server being connected to a gateway server and home service provider network via a roaming connection managed by said gateway server;

    e) said gateway server updating a visitor location register of said home service provider network and setting said wireless telecommunications device as roaming on the network of said gateway server;

    f) said application server being programmed to determine that a first wireless communication is between said wireless telecommunications device and a receiver registered on the same said application server and routing uncompressed wireless data for said first wireless communication through an internal network in said wireless communications network and managed by said application server;

    g) said application server being programmed to provide wireless data through said roaming connection when said internal network is unavailable or unable to provide said wireless data;

    h) in response to said receiver for a second wireless communication being located outside said internal network, said application server and gateway server being programmed to intelligently queue and manage delivery of compressed wireless data from said wireless telecommunications device through said application server and said gateway server,wherein said network translation application adds in conjunction to native wireless data or voice communications of said wireless communication device an alternate wireless data or voice communications method.
