  • a host radio station being operatively coupled to a source of data;

    a plurality of wireless communication repeaters wherein each repeater is adapted for two way wireless full-duplex communication with at least one of the host radio station and another repeater within a line-of-sight of the repeater to enable communication between the host radio station and repeaters beyond a line-of-sight of the host radio station; and

    at least one end user in communication with at least one of the plurality of wireless communication repeaters, wherein the host radio station transmits the data to the at least one end user via the plurality of wireless communication repeaters, at least a first control data packet being transmitted from a source node to a destination node, at least a second control data packet being transmitted from the destination node to the source node in response to the destination node receiving the first control data packet, the source node and the destination node including at least one of the host radio station and the plurality of wireless communication repeaters, the first control data packet including a first sequence number associated therewith, the second control data packet including a second sequence number associated therewith, the first and second sequence numbers distinguishing the first control data packet from the second control data packet, thereby enabling at least one of the source node and the destination node to identify an inoperable portion of a wireless link between the source node and the destination node.
