A wireless relay to serve User Equipment (UE) over a wireless communication network and a wireline communication network. A wireless access point exchanges user signaling with the UE and exchanges S1-MME signaling with an Ethernet switch. The Ethernet switch exchanges the S1-MME signaling between the wireless access point and a Mobility Management Entity (MME) over a wireline communication network. The Ethernet switch exchanges S11 signaling between the MME and a Local Gateway (L-GW) over the wireline communication network. The L-GW exchanges the S11 signaling with the Ethernet switch. The wireless access point exchanges user data between the UE and the L-GW responsive to the S1-MME signaling. The L-GW exchanges the user data between the wireless access point and the Ethernet switch responsive to the S11 signaling. The Ethernet switch exchange the user data between the L-GW and a Packet Data Network Gateway (P-GW) over a wireless communication network.
