QUIC has some basic features for migrating a session to another link, but it doesn't support multipath in that sense. Multipath QUIC (MPQUIC) is a hot research area right now, and it's being standardized. MPTCP's design was

You choose 3 separate providers so that they don't have overlapping spectrum. I've used 2 modems on the same provider, but with each modem locked to a different LTE band. This way, if the provider has one nearby tower on band 1 a

At these throughput levels, you can also use a separate USB3 NICs for each port without any issues.

I can attest that Speedify in redundant mode will handle a link failure in the middle of a Zoom call without a single lost packet or other impact. This isn't failover, though, this is redundancy; it's like having a 1 disk fail in

As someone with a similar setup to the OP, I should mention: OpenMPTCPRouter's networking is completely amateur compared to Speedify. It's a grab bag of half-baked multipath VPN experiments (glorytun over UDP, an outdated MPTCP-

Yes, it relies on a gateway server, effectively a VPN. The gateway server deduplicates packets, reorders them, and then forwards.

It adds a tiny amount of latency, but there are more important factors than latency. If you are on a Zoom call, tunneling through Speedify in redundant mode will give you the minimum latency of n connections, reduce jitter (latency deviatio

Browser APIs are less stable than you might think. If you've ever had to develop web apps for smart TVs (Samsung, LG, Vizio, etc.), then you'll find that each model year is frozen on an old version of Chromium – some from 2016, s

One elephant in the room: The most ubiquitous and unblockable form of VPN is international cellular roaming. (While roaming, all traffic is tunneled back to the home carrier and blends in with their traffic.) Of course, it's the most

Netflix likely spotted the behavior through one of the many other heuristics that can identify this, such as: - Lower packet TTL than gateway - Lower packet MTU than gateway - Much higher latency than gateway - WAN IP listening on well-know

Thanks for the write-up. One issue, though: >You might have also noticed the “Encrypt local backup” checkbox. MVT only operates on decrypted backups, so there’s no point in encrypting your backup here and immediately decrypting it to sc

Can you elaborate? Why doesn't the traditional WPA1/WPA2 string work? What happens if a non-WPA3 client scans this new one?

Geofencing vs. continuous location tracking is an implementation decision about power efficiency only. For data privacy and permissions, these are not distinguished. A user cannot elect to grant "geofencing only" permission. And e
