Multi-Path TCP: revolutionizing connectivity, one path at a time

CloudFaire

As a result, Internet devices usually use a single path and let the routers handle the path selection. 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. There is another way.
