Claim 16:
17. The method according to claim 15, wherein
the step of modifying the maximum amount of unacknowledged data which the transmitting node may transmit includes changing from a current congestion control state to a new congestion control state upon detecting the congestion without unfair competition, wherein the current and the new congestion control states specify respectively a current and a new rule for increasing the maximum amount of unacknowledged data which the transmitting node may transmit size upon receipt of data acknowledgements when neither congestion nor data losses have been detected, and
the new rule specifies a slower rate of increasing the maximum amount of unacknowledged data which the transmitting node may transmit size than the current rule.
