One key characteristic of Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is its interaction with traditional TCP traffic. Implementing MPTCP can result in a scenario akin to a 'TCP within TCP' setup, which has been consistently shown to introduce performance issues. For scenarios demanding higher throughput, alternatives like broadband bonding are often more appropriate. Specifically, when considering cellular networks, the standard approaches to MPTCP may falter when there's even minor performance variance between bonded Wide Area Networks (WANs). In such instances, broadband bonding solutions, such as those offered by Mushroom Networks, could be an effective remedy, particularly for applications like home-office setups.
