Yes! The design of MPTCP specifically takes that into considerations since most of hosts are behind a NAT. It basically initiates may normal TCP connections as subflows. All the middle-boxes would see normal TCP connections while the two MPTCP-aware endpoints split/aggregate traffic using multiple subflows.

- Scramblejams 12y agoSo you need an MPTCP-aware endpoint at the other end of the connection? I was imagining something that could be implemented unilaterally by a savvy home/office user just to ease the disruptions of switching between wired and wifi connections inside a NAT.
