Abstract
An example method may include receiving first data packets intended for a client device at a virtual private network (VPN) server, receiving, concurrently with the first data packets, second data packets at the VPN server, identifying, via the VPN server, whether the first or second packets correspond to a real-time streaming session based on one or more of header information and packet size of the first and second packets and a transmission rate associated with the first and second packets, prioritizing the first data packets, identified as real-time streaming session data packets, to be delivered to the client device prior to the second data packets, identified as non-real-time streaming session data packets, and performing connection bonding or connection mirroring using two or more connections when one or more of a data packet loss rate is above a threshold packet loss rate and the transmission rate is below a threshold transmission rate.
