Replicating traffic communicated over satellite networks

A routing device that acts as a proxy for a client device, the routing device comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
• establishing a primary communication link over a first Wide Area Network (WAN) to communicate data between the client device device and a remote device, the first WAN including a low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite network;
• establishing a backup communication link with the remote device over at least one of the first WAN or a second WAN;
• communicating a traffic stream between the client device and the remote device using the primary communication link;
• monitoring performance of the primary communication link during communication of the traffic stream to generate performance data;
• predicting, using the performance data, an outage or impairment associated with the primary communication link;
• based at least in part on determining the outage or impairment, replicating a portion of the traffic stream that is to be communicated via the primary communication link to generate a replicated traffic stream;
• communicating the portion of the traffic stream using the primary communication link during a period of time;
• and
• communicating the replicated traffic stream using the backup communication link at least partly during the period of time.
