1. A method of relaying a data packet in a mesh communication network having a plurality of network nodes comprising:
a relay node receiving a packet from a source node in a network for relay to a destination network node;
the relay node randomly selecting (i) a network node to which to transmit the packet and (ii) a transmission mode by which to transmit the packet to the randomly selected network node; and
the relay node transmitting the packet to the randomly selected network node using the randomly selected transmission mode.
