1. A method for communicating via a lossless protocol a packet constructed for transmissions via a lossy protocol, the method comprising the steps of:

  • (a) establishing a connection between a first computing device and a second computing device via a lossless protocol;

    (b) detecting, by a remote access client of the first computing device, a lossless protocol packet comprising a payload having one or more packets constructed in accordance with a lossy protocol;

    (c) communicating, by the remote access client of the first computing device responsive to the detection of the lossy protocol of the payload a false acknowledgement comprising an acknowledgement of receipt of the lossless protocol packet prior to an actual receipt of the lossless protocol packet to one of the first computing device or the second computing device, receipt of the false acknowledgement preventing a network stack of one of the first computing or the second computing device from executing an operation associated with providing a lossless characteristic of the lossless protocol; and

    (d) communicating, by the first computing device, the lossless protocol packet to the second computing device.
