A method of transmitting data between a content server (11) and a terminal (17) belonging to a discontinuous coverage network, the terminal (17) moving from a first radio coverage area (14, 161) to a second radio coverage area (14, 162) over an area (14a) comprising no radio coverage. The method includes: terminating (100) one or more protocols used by the content server (11) for the data transmission with the terminal (17) within a proxy, wherein the proxy is seen as the entry point of the discontinuous coverage network by the content server (11), and using a caching mechanism provided within the discontinuous coverage network for forwarding (200) data from the proxy to the terminal (17).
