A load balancing technique for optimally routing data packets to a hybrid terminal over an asymmetric hybrid network link, which utilizes a bi-directional terrestrial channel and a satellite channel. For each data packet received from an Internet server, a load-balancing algorithm is employed to determine whether to route the packet via the bi-directional terrestrial channel or the satellite channel. The load- balancing algorithm is designed so relatively small data packets are transmitted over the bi- directional terrestrial channel, while larger data packets are transmitted over the satellite channel. All data packets lost during terrestrial transmission are re-transmitted over the satellite channel. Additional value-added services are added to redirect all Internet traffic terrestrially when the hybrid terminal experiences rain fade or other condition, which disrupts the satellite channel.
