Abstract: A method of forwarding received broadcast packets by a receiving node device in a network of operatively interconnected node devices is disclosed. The received broadcast packets is broadcasted by a transmitting node device in the network. The method is performed by each receiving node device in the network and comprises the steps of: enabling a fast broadcasting mode in response to a trigger condition; adjusting a transmission power for forwarding received broadcast packets to a reduced transmission power, and forwarding, a broadcast packet received from the transmitting node device using the reduced transmission power. The method further comprises selectively forwarding a part of broadcast packets received from the transmitting node device. The method thereby reduces a number of broadcast packets transmitted simultaneously in the network, ensuring good network performance.
