1. A method of transmitting data by distributing traffic to respective lines between a server and a client connected to each other via a virtual interface provided for at least one line, comprising:

  • a first step of the client transmitting a bandwidth test request signal to the server;

    a second step of the server transmitting a test request approval signal to the client in response to the bandwidth test request signal;

    a third step of the client conducting a bandwidth test measuring download transfer rates and upload transfer rates for respective lines connected to the server;

    a fourth step of the client transmitting results of the bandwidth test to the server;

    a fifth step of the server setting first traffic distribution weights, which is used to transmit data from the server to the client, using the results of the bandwidth test;

    a sixth step of the client setting second traffic distribution weights, which is used to transmit data from the client to the server, using the results of the bandwidth test; and

    a seventh step of the server distributing data to respective lines depending on the first traffic distribution weights and transmitting the distributed data to the client via a virtual interface and the respective lines, and the client distributing data to respective lines depending on the second traffic distribution weights and transmitting the distributed data to the server via a virtual interface and the respective lines.
