Central coordinator and proxy coordinator information typically found in powerline communications standards, such as the HomePlug standards, is used to ensure proper communication of a data packet directed toward an unknown destination. By using the central coordinator nodes and the proxy coordinator nodes to repeat the data packet according to a set of forwarding rules, the data packet can be transmitted to each node in the network using a tree topology that avoids generating loops that may result in packet storms. When the destination node is located, subsequent data packets can be sent to the destination node through a known route.
