Zusammenfassung:Techniques and architectures for measuring available bandwidth. A train of probe packets is received from a remote electronic device. A network transmission delay for at least two packets from the train of probe packets is measured. Network congestion is estimated utilizing the at least two packets from the train of probe packets. An estimated available bandwidth is computed based on the network transmission and estimated network congestion. One or more network transmission characteristics are modified based on the estimated available bandwidth.
