A communication system comprises access points () communicating via directional beams and a first and second wireless modem () for establishing a first and respectively second mm wave radio communication links to access points (). The first and second wireless modems () are located on a vehicle () and employ electronically steerable beamforming directional antennas having a first main beams for establishing the radio communication links. A common network element () supports communication over both links and a connection control circuit () switches between the links while providing a single wired connection point. A multipath controller () communicates with a complementary multipath controller of the fixed network over a plurality of paths with the multipath controller () having a first wired port for a first path of the plurality of paths connected to the first single wired connection point.

Communication with vehicle based node

A communication system supports communication between an end node () of a vehicle () and a remote correspondent node () via a fixed network () which comprises a plurality of wireless access points () with a directional antenna arrangement for mm wave radio communication using directional beams. A vehicle () comprises wireless modems () employing electronically steerable beamforming directional antennas for establishing mm wave radio communication links to the access points (). The wireless modems () forms links to two different access points (). A ink manager () is arranged to terminate a second mm wave radio communication link in response to a link failure a first mm wave radio communication link, and to initialize setup of a third mm wave radio communication link in response to the termination of the second mm wave radio communication link.
