A dynamic rate adjustment system receives an indication of a route and one or more network sectors that intersect with the route. The dynamic rate adjustment system determines a time period during which a user device will be located in each network sector and identifies a cost for networking services to be provided to user devices based on the time period. The dynamic rate adjustment system determines a dynamic rate for the user device to use the networking services based on the cost for networking services and causes the user device to transmit user device data based on the dynamic rate when the user device is located within a network sector associated with the dynamic rate.

A dynamic rate identification system receives an indication of a route for a user device and identifies one or more network sectors based on the route. The dynamic rate identification system determines a dynamic rate for each network sector based on the route, and identifies at least one hotspot that a user device is able to access while the user device travels along the route. The dynamic rate identification system causes the user device to transmit user device data when the user device is able to access the hotspot.

There is disclosed a system and method for transmission of multiple data streams from a mobile device to a network. In an embodiment, the system includes a multipath wireless router configured to provide a plurality of network connections including cellular, satellite, or wired Ethernet. An encoding module provided on the mobile device is configured to encode high volume data (e.g. high definition video) recorded by the mobile device into multiple data streams in dependence on the number of network connections available for transmission via the multipath wireless router. The encoding module provided on the mobile device transmits the multiple data streams to the wireless router using Wi-Fi to provide a local, short-hop, high capacity network connection. The plurality of network connections available via the multipath wireless router provides the necessary capacity and reliability to transmit a high volume of data, such as high definition video, virtually live.

In aspects of managing FTM frames of WLAN RTT bursts, a device can receive a WLAN RTT burst, such as initiated by a device application, device firmware, or received as a RTT ranging request. The device implements a status module that interposes the routing of the ranging request in the device, and determines a device state of the device with a device state monitor of the status module. The status module is implemented to drop the ranging request if the device is an idle device state such that the ranging request is extraneous. Alternatively, the status module is implemented to reduce a number of FTM frames in the ranging request based on the device state indicating that multiple FTM frames of the ranging request are extraneous, and then route to perform the ranging request of the WLAN RTT burst with the reduced number of FTM frames in the ranging request.
