If a faulty condition is detected, a protected packet is transmitted over the first radio link wherein the transmission occupies a first portion of available bandwidth on the first radio link, a duplicate of the protected packet is transmitted over the second radio link wherein said transmission occupies a second portion of available bandwidth on the second radio link, and unprotected packets are transmitted on at least part of the remainder of the available bandwidth of the first radio link and at least part of the remainder of the available bandwidth of the second radio link.
