Network data transmission involves transmitting data packets from a first station for reception at a second station. The second station receives at least one of the transmitted packets in an input buffer, identifies at least one transmitted packet that has not been received as an identified non-received packet, and transmits an indication back to the first station indicating the identified non-received packet. Aspects of the invention include: identifying the non received packet by the sequence number, generating a plurality of indications at a rate that varies in dependence upon network conditions (e.g. latency), transmitting the indication only for first types of data transmission (e.g. streamed data) and individually acknowledging second types of data (e.g. transactional data), and transmitting the indications in a received packet that identifies a packet that was received by the terminal. |
