Methods are provided for facilitating local communication between wireless devices at a femto cell without passing communication to a network infrastructure, routing data packets to devices connected to a femto cell, and eliminating a need to send data to a home agent when two devices are connected to the same femto cell. When mobile devices are in a femto cell zone, it is not necessary to send payload information to a core network including a packet data serving node and a home agent. A femto cell local breakout with a PPP proxy can be used to handle the payload information locally. The femto cell local breakout with PPP proxy stores the mobile devices and IP addresses. So, when one mobile device in the femto cell zone sends payload information to another mobile device, the femto cell routes the payload information to the other mobile device in the femto cell zone.
