+Help: Enable Multipath TCP (MPTCP)
+Category: connection
+Multi: boolean

+Example:
+  - --mptcp $URL
+---
+
+# `--mptcp`
+
+Enables the use of Multipath TCP (MPTCP) for connections. MPTCP is an extension 
+to the standard TCP that allows multiple TCP streams over different network 
+paths between the same source and destination. This can enhance bandwidth and 
+improve reliability by using multiple paths simultaneously.
+
+MPTCP is beneficial in networks where multiple paths exist between clients and 
+servers, such as mobile networks where a device may switch between Wi-Fi and 
+cellular data or in wired networks with multiple ISPs.
+
+## Usage
+
+To use MPTCP for your connections, add the `--mptcp` option when using `curl`:
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Your operating system must support MPTCP, and it must be enabled.
+- The server you are connecting to must also support MPTCP.
+
+## Availability
+
+The `--mptcp` option is available starting from `curl` version 8.6.1.

+# NAME
+
+CURLOPT_MPTCP - enable Multipath TCP
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+~~~c
+
+#include <curl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MPTCP, long enable);
+~~~
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+Pass a long as parameter set to 1L to enable or 0 to disable.
+
+Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is an extension of TCP that allows multiple paths 
+to be used simultaneously by a single TCP connection, enhancing redundancy, 
+bandwidth, and potentially reducing latency. 
+It works by presenting a standard TCP interface to applications while 
+managing multiple underlying TCP connections.
+
+Enabling MPTCP can improve the performance and reliability of network requests, 
+particularly in environments where multiple network paths (e.g., WiFi and 
+cellular) are available.
+
+Note: MPTCP support depends on the underlying operating system and network 
+infrastructure. Not all networks support MPTCP, and its effectiveness will 
+vary based on the network configuration and conditions.
+
+# DEFAULT
+
+0
+
+# PROTOCOLS
+
+All
+
+# EXAMPLE
+
+~~~c
+
+int main(void)
+{
+  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
+  if(curl) {
+    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
+    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_MPTCP, 1L);
+    curl_easy_perform(curl);
+  }
+}
+~~~
+
+# AVAILABILITY
+
+Support for MPTCP in libcurl requires Linux 5.6 or later. 
+The feature's availability in libcurl can also depend 
+on the version of libcurl. Added in 8.7.0.
+
+# RETURN VALUE
+
+Returns CURLE_OK if MPTCP is successfully enabled for the connection,
+ otherwise returns an error code specific to the reason it could not be enabled, 
+ which might include lack of operating system support or libcurl not being built 
+ with MPTCP support.
