Disclosed herein are methods for establishing communication protocols between wireless devices in infusion pump systems. Infusion pump systems can include a number of components capable of wireless communication with one or more other components including an infusion pump, a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system, a smartphone or other remote consumer electronic device and/or a dedicated remote controller for the infusion pump. In order to ensure reliable communication of data, more than one component in a system can be capable of relaying data to another component.
