A method of creating a functional arrangement of a general wireless mesh network of communication devices with packet message transmission, especially wireless networks designated for telemetry and automation, including at least a single control communication device (C) and a set of slave communication devices (N), wherein the control communication device (C) searches in the network and step by step assigns a unique virtual routing number (VRN) to each slave communication device (N), so that this unique virtual routing number (VRN), reflecting the distance of this slave communication device (N) from the control communication device (C), expressed by the number of routings, is stored in the slave communication device (N which, for further routing of packets in the mesh network, uses time slots assigned according to the difference between said virtual routing number (VRN) and the virtual routing number (VRN) of the received packet sender. A method of routing packet message transmission in general wireless mesh networks, which is based on succesive flooding of the whole virtual routing structure and use of multiple access with time division, wherein each communication device (N) which is part of the virtual routing structure receives and recognizes a time slot designated for this device, on the basis of a previously received packet containing the virtual routing number (VRN) of the sender, calculated from the difference between the virtual routing number of this device and the virtual routing number of the sender.
