Abstract: A wireless network communication system consists of an access server for facilitating communication between a network resource interfacing with the access server over a land-based network and a wireless communications device interfacing with the access server over a wireless network. A message intended for transmission from the wireless communication device to the network resource is transmitted to the access server over a wireless network as a number of message datagrams. Upon receipt of the message datagrams over the wireless network, the access server generates and transmits to the wireless communication device an acknowledgement datagram indicating successful receipt of each message datagram, and transmits the successfully received message datagrams to the network resource over the land-based network.
