Abstract
An audio gateway is provided for receiving an internet relay request and a number called in a call from a telephone via the internet. An audio data gateway is selected using the number called, and relay operations are performed with the selected destination audio data gateway. The relay audio data is multiplexed for streams based on multiple relay requests having the same relay destination so that the relay audio data in these streams are multiplexed into a single relay stream.
