The method and mobile ad hoc network include the use of a plurality of mobile nodes. A main communication path is established from a source node through intermediate nodes to a destination node. Alternative communication paths are established among intermediate nodes defined as standby nodes to define a multipath communication pathway from the source node to the destination node. The nodes include a controller and a wireless communications device cooperating therewith. Link quality is monitored by at least one intermediate node to neighboring nodes in the multipath communication pathway, and the main communication path is reconfigured within the multipath communication pathway to at least one of the alternative communication paths based upon monitored link quality.
