We adjust the classical random waypoint mobility model used in the study of telecommunication networks to a more realistic setting by allowing participants of the network to return to popular places and individual homes. We show that the two fundamental random times of detection and coverage in this new probabilistic model for large random networks exhibit exponential tails. Furthermore we examine the model for percolation.
