Abstract
The disclosed technology addresses the need in the art for a solution configured to prevent network retransmission timeouts. A system is configured to receive a data packet originating from a sender and forward the data packet to a receiver. The system receives, from the receiver, an acknowledgment message that corresponds to the data packet and holds the acknowledgment message in a buffer until a delay time period expires, wherein the delay time period is determined based on a log of acknowledgment times. When the delay time period expires, the system forwards the acknowledgement to the sender.
