Abstract
A residential gateway wirelessly receives a message from a terminal device. The residential gateway forms part of a communication system comprising a plurality of residential gateways connected to a server for which said message is intended. The residential gateway determines whether said terminal device has previously been paired with said residential gateway. If such is the case, the residential gateway wirelessly transmits an acknowledgement to the terminal device and propagates the message to the server. Otherwise the residential gateway activates a timer of predetermined duration at the end of which, when no wirelessly-transmitted acknowledgement of said message has been detected, the residential gateway wirelessly transmits an acknowledgement to the terminal device and propagates the message to the server.
