Abstract: Packet communication apparatus connects plural LANs to each other, in termination of a WAN that conducts data communication using handshake communication protocol. Apparatus buffers data packets between the LANs, and transfers, as a proxy, response packets and data packets to a terminal device. The apparatus stops transmission of data packets belonging to an arbitrary packet flow when the reception of the response packets belonging to the packet flow from the WAN is ceased for a network outage detection time or more set, while transmitting data packets belonging to the arbitrary packet flow. The apparatus retransmits a first data packet whose corresponding response packet is not received, belonging to the packet flow immediately after the data packet transmission stops, and retransmits all data packets whose corresponding response packets are not received, belonging to the packet flow, when receiving the response packets from the WAN.
