A method of ringcasting with improved reliability, in which a participant who is the source of content saves the signal in which the content is found, and compares received signals with the signal in which the content is found to ensure that the content has made it completely around the ring. If any particular piece of the content does not complete the ring, the content is re-transmitted from the participant around the ring. Sequence indices within the signal informs each participant of the sequence in which any particular piece of content is to be received so that, even if any particular piece of content is received out of order, it will be replaced in its proper sequence by a recipient.
