Abstract
Technology for reducing delay in data streaming at a wireless device while improving re-buffering and video quality is disclosed. A missing data segment can be detected based on an out-of-order data segment being received in a plurality of data segments from a network element in a wireless network. A fake acknowledgement (ACK) can be sent to the network element in the wireless network, based on the context information, acknowledging that the missing data segment was received at the wireless device. The out-of-order data segment without the missing data segment can be provided for display at the wireless device.
