That's why you use multiple. It doesn't matter how unreliable, if it only works on in a million times, you send two million. Still the same concept.

Of course, but in using multiple I wager we would end up with a transmission rate the same or worse than without tunnelling. Might be wrong, but I'll defer to the actual experts on this one.

Is there an upper bound on how noisy the signal can be and still work?
