A method (400) and system (100) for a wireless multi-hopping communication system is provided, wherein the system (100) includes an access point (102), a source node (CR1), and a plurality of nodes. The source node (CR1) is in communication with the access point (102), and configured to transmit a signal on at least one of a plurality of frequencies. The plurality of nodes are in communication with the access point (102) and the source node (CR1), and configured to transmit a signal on at least one of the plurality of frequencies, wherein the source node (CR1) and the plurality of nodes are adapted to determine a routing path utilizing at least one intermediate node (CR2) of the plurality of nodes and a transmitting frequency of the plurality of frequencies while reducing interference to a primary user of the transmitting frequency.
