Abstract
This invention provides apparatuses, methods, and systems for classification of a web client's network bandwidth by a web server in real time over the Internet. The web server, based upon the round trip time (RTT) taken to establish the TCP connection with the web client, classifies the network bandwidth. The RTT for establishment of the TCP connection using a 3-way handshake is stored on the web server on most modern Operating Systems and can be fetched on demand by the web server for a given connection. A web application on the web server could then use this bandwidth classification to serve varied content to the web client, such as a light or heavy web page depending on the level of the bandwidth.
