A method and device for data traffic smoothing are provided. Arriving data packets are buffer-stored and passed on by taking account of an overhead of management information which is attached to the data packet in a protocol conversion process, which is carried out later. This protocol conversion process is carried out at a later time, for example by a DSL modem. The data transmission rate measured from the point of view of the network element carrying out the data traffic smoothing is not the criterion to be adjusted, but the data transmission rate after protocol conversion. A quality of service both for low and high data packet lengths is ensured, and the bandwidth of a DSL connection can therefore be exploited fully both for the VOIP and for data transmission.
