A system and method for optimizing Internet data transmission so that end-user experience is the best possible. The invention has at least one class set for estimating the network load, wherein each class set consists of classes. The method estimates the network load by each class of the class set. The estimation may be based on counting retransmission requests or packet acknowledgements related to class sets. For example, a class set may consist of classes so that there is a class per each cell of the network. Then the method detects which packets cause a lot of retransmission requests and thus a lot of retransmissions. The method can intelligently target its acceleration actions to certain packets. Four new acceleration actions can be used together with the prior art acceleration actions to accelerate the network traffic.

Method for optimizing performance in wireless networks

Methods and arrangements are disclosed for transferring digital data over a limited speed communications link between a client side subarrangement () and a server side subarrangement (). Within the client side subarrangement (), a client application () receives and transmits digital data using a first communications protocol stack () and, within the server side subarrangement (), a server application () receives and transmits digital data using the first communications protocol stack (). Digital data is transferred between the client application () and the server application () through a client proxy () within the client side subarrangement () and an access gateway () within the server side subarrangement (). Said client proxy () performs protocol conversations between the first communications protocol stack () and a second communications protocol stack () that provides a bandwidth efficiency that is better than a bandwidth efficiency to which the first communications protocol corresponds.
