Enter Multi-Path TCP (MPTCP), which exploits the presence of multiple interfaces on a device, such as a mobile phone that has both Wi-Fi and cellular antennas, to achieve multi-path connectivity. It's a major extension to the TCP protocol, and historically most of the TCP changes failed to gain traction. There is another way.

To address this issue, the cryptography community has been working on a new class of cryptosystems known as post-quantum cryptography (PQC), which are expected to withstand quantum attacks but can be less efficient (in particular, communication bandwidth wise) than its classical counterparts.

Not as difficult as time travel, but it’s difficult enough so that for 30+ years IT professionals have tried to skirt the issue by adding more bandwidth between locations or by rolling out faster routers and switches. Over the last few decades network managers have focused on adding bandwidth and reducing the network outages.

Optimization has always been about overcoming latency, jitter, packet loss, and bandwidth limitations. However, in recent years bandwidth has become much less of an issue for most enterprises. Lower dollar-per-bit costs of bandwidth and apps that incorporate data duplication and compression are big drivers of this shift.

Sometimes, your connections don’t have enough bandwidth. Send these pings using the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) or TCP to one or any of the devices you believe to be involved. Ping is a utility that’s available on practically every system, be it a desktop, server, router, or switch. Packets simply get dropped.

Included features like QoS, TCP Acceleration, and Packet Loss Mitigation allow customers to fine-tune performance to their needs. Customers can control the use of TCP acceleration and Packet Loss Mitigation and assign a bandwidth priority level to the traffic. Cato Network Rules are pre-defined to meet common use-cases.

Proxy TCP Connections Fundamentally, TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) connections inherently add more overhead than their UDP (User Datagram Protocol) counterparts. At scale, this leads to scenarios where TCP connections can significantly contribute to network congestion and reduce throughput.
