1. A system, comprising:
- a first computing device coupled to a network, including;
a processor; and
a computer readable medium comprising instructions executable for;
creating a first packet including data and a request for control data;
sending the first packet from the first computing device to a second computing device over the network using an unreliable protocol;
receiving a second packet from the second computing device, the second packet including the requested control data, wherein the second packet was received using the unreliable protocol and the control data was sent from the second computing device in response to the first packet; and
adjusting the sending of data from the first computing device to the second computing device using the unreliable protocol based on the control data in the second packet.

Abstract
Embodiments as disclosed provided methods or systems for sending data over a network. Specifically, in certain embodiments, data is received and a datagram comprising at least a portion of the data can be created and sent to a terminal. Control data can be received from the terminal and the sending of the data to the terminal adjusted based on the received control data. In certain embodiments both the datagram and the control data may be sent over an unreliable protocol. Thus, embodiments as disclosed may provide an increased level of reliability and adaptability to differing network conditions in conjunction with the use of an unreliable protocol.
