A communication link is established with a packet-communications device. According to an example embodiment of the present invention, a network connection (e.g., 130) is established between a packet-communications device (e.g., 120) and a server (e.g., 110) to pass data such as requests and responses, as well as files, media, streaming and other data. The network connection is a tunneled connection, facilitating the communication of data using a particular protocol that may be different from or otherwise incompatible with the data being communicated. The tunnel is divided into two or more logical communications channels (e.g., 131-134), facilitating the multiplexing of data (e.g., request/response pairs) onto a single physical network connection.
