(author here) I didn't have a chance to test how the VPN works, but even if they were using MPTCP the switch wouldn't necessarily be seamless.
Especially how they are using it now - which hands over a Wi-Fi call (which is data) - to a cellular voice call (not data). It's a subtle point, but calls over cellular are not data, so they are not using TCP/UDP/MPTCP/etc.
- toomuchtodo 11y ago> but calls over cellular are not data Does this change with VoLTE? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VoLTE https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VoLTE
- ndrarmst 11y agoYes - with VoLTE, calls are also data.

- ndrarmst 11y agoExactly. They are doing VoIP over Wi-Fi (VoWiFi), but not VoIP over 3G/LTE (which is VoLTE if you follow certain standards).
