Just sharing what is a ring network. If you just google this term you get a lot of kiddo or dinosaur answer.
High level explanation from Huawei:
High-Reliability Ring Network
https://info.support.huawei.com/hedex/api/p...2004996294.htmlDetailed setup from Cisco:
ITU-T G.8032 Ethernet Ring Protection Switching
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wirel...ter_0111111.pdfComponents of the ring from Juniper:
High Availability User Guide: Understanding Ethernet Ring Protection Switching
https://www.juniper.net/documentation/us/en...erstanding.htmlFinally, the actual specification:
ITU-T G.8032/Y.1344
https://www.itu.int/rec/dologin_pub.asp?lan...DF-E&type=itemsNetwork with high uptime don't just drop from the sky. There are a lot of serious engineering and money thrown into it.
The problem with Malaysia GLC companies are once the thing is built, there is no continuous investment to update the infrastructure.
Example:
1. KLIA core switch was 25 years old when it finally died and the whole airport grind to a halt.
2. KLIA aerotrain.
3. RapidKL train, bus, lift and escalator.
I am sure DNB will be in the same situation 20 years later.
Intel: Yes, RING bus, split into small core as solution!
AMD: ?
----(forget I talk about this or not, so just said again la lol)
Based on my observation at China, they did facing the same issues 12 years ago, they oversold the broadband of area, so everynight they will drop speed and packet loss lol.
But now, mostly fixed, by their KPI I guess, as any monitoring warning like signal loss or weak signal causing disconnection shown up, they had to fix it by calling the client, then step up to their house lol.
And, to fill up the hole of money as they are mostly cheaper than us(FYI, different area different plan price, some area paid yearly and 10x cheaper than us), they are collecting money from services side, lol.
(So most of their video is 1-6Mbps video bitrate only, including 4k, yes.)
To fight back, services side used PCDN which is P2P based CDN, then give a lot ppl with NAT1 network free router with SSD connected, which working as peer, so transfer the cost of bandwidth to customer, and give customer some money la.
Then, these 2 years, ISP went crazy because of inter-state bandwidth calculation(problem of big country, big area with different ISP under same name company lol), when they detected customer uploading just to any cloud storage, they will cut their customer's upload speed to 5Mbps only, pull back NAT1(public IP) and put back into CGNAT, then asking they to sign a promise that they will not perform PCDN, which is a trap.
(the correct method is to disagree it as not performing any PCDN, then report to upper level, then repeat again if 5M limit coming back, lol.)
If got upload requirement like hoster/live streamer, then need to sign special contract as well.
So, what's will happen to Malaysia which is small country, time will tell la.

Ppl say cannot connect internet, so look like faulty router
Not mean crap free router unable handle
WiFi 6 router, the SkyWorth GN630V, have 2 fault.
1. WPA3 unstable, sometimes it got disabled while running, but still broadcasting as WPA3 supported, when WPA3 client trying connect to it, it will dropped
2. EasyMesh unstable, if you enabled EasyMesh, even without any second mesh connected, you can be drop by any IoT device that nearby the router, lol.
(Yes, got 1 smart socket trigger 2.4G WiFi missing, lol.
And FYI, if customer using EVPAD, the 金星影视 RH app will creating a lot of half-open connection in the background, downloading 1GB of data and upload it to other clients, as it is the only app that supported from EVPAD gen 3-6, a lot of outdated old customer are performing nearly DDoS to the ISP.
If the customer are using Asus router, this TVbox will get auto ban by the router first, lol.
Unsure how many connection open by this app, I am sure it should be over 1000 connections, let's hope it is not 10000 connections.
Anyways, hope TM don't block P2P again la(like old time streamyx lol), not like P2P tech is the fault here, but the EVPAD is, they should fight it back via MCMC as it is illegal lol.
