According to one configuration, an example communication system includes multiple wireless base stations such as a first wireless base station and a second wireless base station. The first wireless base station resides outdoors and receives timing information from remote radio hardware such as a satellite or other suitable resource; the second wireless base station resides indoors and is unable to receive the timing information from the satellite. The communication system includes a communication link or network connecting the second wireless base station to the first wireless base station. In one configuration, the second wireless base station receives the timing information from the first wireless base station over the network. The first wireless base station and the second wireless base station both use the timing information to synchronize wireless communications in the wireless network environment.
