Zusammenfassung:Abstract A network gateway is provided for routing data flows across a plurality of network connections, the network gateway including a plurality of network interfaces for transmitting data over the plurality of network connections, the plurality of network interfaces including a first network interface; at least one processor configured for: transmitting a sequential burst of packets across the first network interface; based on timestamps recorded when packets in the sequential burst of packets are received at a receiving node, and the size of the packets, generating a bandwidth of the first network interface; and routing a data flow of sequential packets across the plurality of network connections based on the generated bandwidth of the first network interface.
