1. A cellular communication system, comprising:

  • a first and second wireless client-bridge, the first client bridge being coupled to a first network backbone of a first computer network including at least one client computer, the second client bridge being coupled to a second network backbone of a second computer network including at least one client computer; and

    a multiple-radio bridge coupled to a third network backbone of a third computer network including at least one host computer, the multiple-radio bridge including;

    first and second radio devices, the first radio device including a first transceiver, the second radio device including a second transceiver, wherein the first and second radio devices are configured to each respectively operate on at least one of a different frequency hopping sequence and a different pseudonoise code, the first radio device being designated for communications with the first client-bridge, and the second radio device being designated for communications with the second client-bridge, the radio devices providing for substantially simultaneous wireless communication between the multiple-radio bridge and the first and second wireless client-bridges, in order to determine the locations of selected client computers and communicate information packets between the host computer and a selected client computer;

    wherein the multiple-radio bridge further comprises;

    a single processor-actuated routing table for storing the locations of each of the respective client computers, in order to quickly route future information packets and thereby reduce system traffic.
