N2 - We found that directly employing MPTCP in WiFi network might adversely affect the overall network performance. The connecting MPTCP client achieves little bandwidth advantage through redundant paths of weak signal strength. However, it impairs the overall network performance by unintentionally reducing the throughput available to other clients sharing that access point in much greater extent. In this paper, we analyzed this phenomenon and provided a method, which improves the adverse impact of MPTCP significantly.
