1. A method of monitoring network statistics in a videoconferencing session, comprising:

  • initiating a videoconferencing session between a first endpoint and a second endpoint via a network;

    transmitting data between the first endpoint and the second endpoint;

    collecting a first plurality of data samples, each of the plurality of data samples comprising a quantifiable metric representing one or more network conditions;

    discarding data samples from the first plurality of data samples that exceed a first percentile of the data samples in a network statistics data set;

    adding data samples from the first plurality of data samples to network statistics dataset;

    analyzing the network statistics dataset to estimate an available bandwidth of the network;

    identifying a network disturbance;

    discarding data samples collected for a specified period of time following the network disturbance; and

    adjusting the bandwidth used for the videoconferencing session based on the estimated available bandwidth.
