Optimized data streaming detection and prioritization
An example method may include receiving first data packets intended for a client device at a virtual private network (VPN) server, receiving, concurrently with the first data packets, second data packets at the VPN server, identifying, via the VPN server, whether the first or second packets correspond to a real-time streaming session based on one or more of header information and packet size of the first and second packets and a transmission rate associated with the first and second packets, prioritizing the first data packets, identified as real-time streaming session data packets, to be delivered to the client device prior to the second data packets, identified as non-real-time streaming session data packets, and performing connection bonding or connection mirroring using two or more connections when one or more of a data packet loss rate is above a threshold packet loss rate and the transmission rate is below a threshold transmission rate.
An example method may include identifying upload packets at a VPN client operating on a client device, which include a header with a destination server as the destination field and the client device as the source field, adding, via the VPN client, an additional header identifying the client device in an additional source field and identifying an interconnect server center (ISC) device in an additional destination field, to create modified upload packets, receiving the modified upload packets from the client device at the ISC device, replacing, via the ISC device, the additional source field of the modified upload packets with a new additional source field identifying the ISC device and replacing the additional destination field of the modified upload packets with a new additional destination field identifying a VPN server to create further modified upload packets, and forwarding the further modified upload packets to the VPN server for routing to the destination server.
One example method of operation may include receiving a data request from a client device to retrieve data from one or more servers, identifying from the data request one or more of a domain name and an IP address associated with the one or more servers, determining whether the data will be routed through a VPN server or through a non-VPN route among the one or more servers based on a comparison of one or more of the domain name and the IP address with one or more lists stored in a VPN client application memory associated with the VPN server, and routing the data through the VPN server or outside the VPN server based on results of the comparison.
One example method of operation may include transmitting a data stream from a first device to a second device via one or more channels, determining the data stream experienced a potential network communication error, and retransmitting at least a portion of the data stream over a mirrored channel transmission comprising at least two streams which both retransmit in parallel at least a same portion of the retransmitted portion of the data stream.
A method of connecting a client computer to a server, the method comprising the steps of: transmitting a first request from the client computer to the server for the server to communicate with the client computer; transmitting a second request from the client computer to the server for the server to communicate with the client computer, the second request transmitted from the client computer to the server without first receiving a response to the first request; wherein there is more than one difference between the first request and the second request, and the response requested from the server based on the first request and the second request is identical.

A method of communicating with a remote server via a client, the method comprises the steps of: allowing encapsulated data to be transmitted from the client and towards a remote server via a VPN; attempting to gain access to, or to increase access to, a private network with unencapsulated data and outside of the VPN; identifying a captive portal that restricts access to the private network; allowing receipt of signaling with unencapsulated data outside of the VPN that causes an authentication server associated with the captive portal to permit access or increase access to the private network; and transmitting encapsulated data from the client to the remote server via the VPN and over the private network after the authentication server grants access to the private network.
A VPN is established between a client and a remote server. Data is partitioned into a plurality of packets. The packets are encrypted and scheduled for transmission over a cellular and a Wi-Fi connection. Scheduling of the packets is dynamically adjusted. Addresses of the encrypted packets are translated to match network addresses of respective physical interfaces. Packets are transmitted from the client to the server based on the scheduling. A packet that is transmitted on one of the connections and is subsequently lost is subsequently transmitted on the other connection.

A method of distributing data over multiple Internet connections is provided. The method includes the steps of: (a) providing a client computer with access to a plurality of Internet connections; and (b) providing a host computer for determining the allocation of data to be sent to the client computer over each of the plurality of Internet connections using at least one of (i) predetermined criteria and (ii) dynamically changing criteria.
A Network Address Translating (“NAT”) Router, particularly designed for mobile use, and for managing one or more local area networks, having private internet protocol (“IP”) address ranges, along with multiple “upstream” networks, and for efficiently routing communications traffic to and from the upstream networks, is disclosed. The inventive router allocates multiple network connections of varying quality, to automatically optimize the effective connection speed in a mobile client network with optional personal “hotspot” sub-networks. The inventive NAT router is also capable of managing IP address allocation on local networks to substantially avoid conflicts with other networks encountered in normal use.

Systems and methods to provide improved secure, high speed networking between two or more computers is disclosed. The invention provides a robust and flexible means to readily establish a secure connection between two or more computers using insecure public or private network connections, while eliminating most of the difficulties and issues a user typically experiences with varying virtual private networks (“VPN”) and firewall configurations. The inventive system can be adapted to route traffic across multiple network connections based on a variety of criteria, including without limitation, the importance of any given data, the cost of each means of connection, and/or the performance of each possible means of connecting to the client system.
