Network Topologies (Star, Bus, Ring, Mesh, Ad hoc, Infrastructure, & Wireless Mesh Topology)

What is a network topology? A topology is the layout of how a network communicates with different devices. In this video we discuss the star, bus, ring, mesh, ad hoc, infrastructure and wireless mesh topologies.

On this channel I learned more about networking than in one year of having specialized class on computer networks.

I always love the humor that he puts in the voice balloons! Like, "who broke the wire?" And the other computers, "don't blame me!" Hehe. It's nice when creatorscan add humor to help a dry subject more fun. Keep up the use of voice balloons please.

I'm a networking student and we are discussing topology....I was so lost until I watched this video... Thank you so much!!!

One popular example of an ad hoc network is Apple's AirDrop function. It's a quick and temporary connection between two Apple devices that can send and receive certain types of supported data.

The "Nothing can ever separate us." comment made me laugh. I loved that the types of connectors used in a bus were explained. Seeing how these topologies work visually makes so much more sense than diagrams.

IF YOU ARE WATCHING THIS TODAY, YOU ARE BLESSED BY GOD AND PROTECTED 🔥🔥THANKS FOR THE VIDEO

My professor used this video and everyone liked it and somehow laughed in ring topology thank you so much

[szrpaudel]

I have learned wired topologies many times but very few talk about wireless topologies. Thank you for including all.
And great as always

I can truly say with this kind of simplified learning methods, we can get CCNA without the extra fluff, books, and "EXPERTS", hats off PowerCert, Btw The wireless mesh network is heavily used in Industrial application, especially when multiple nodes need to be interconnected using self-healing network add HART to it, and you will have full diagnostic data transmission that can not be lost, add repeaters and you shall have a wide coverage area of a wireless mesh network.

Damn, i thought this will be boring but, I love the conversation of other computers

[manlikedrogba]

i wish my instructor was this good at teaching

[NghiaTran-jlup]

Learning from this channel is much easier than anywhere else. I tried to learn the same thing from other channels or even Coursera, but having to say only this channel is explaining everything very easy to understand

[jpartclub]

Very well explained !!!
I was reading a chapter and was preparing for my exam and was surfing through my book contents it was so hard to understand i don't know why this video don't have many views😒

[bradschneider]

Its crazy, you read the textbook and I've been struggling to understand this topic. I watch this video once and I feel so much more confident,

[rogerstark]

This was more informative than the three-hour college lecture I just had on it. Thanks

[sudipbosu]

You are great! Before seeing this, I failed to understand Bus Topology every time. But now, this is clear to me as day light. That coaxial cable and BNC connector made the difference. Thanks!

Nowadays (2024-ish), wireless mesh topology can indeed use wired ethernet data backhaul from the access points to the router. In a traditional wired backhaul setup, each access point is a stand-alone device, and the client choses one to connect to. In a modern wireless mesh with ethernet backhaul topology, all access points act as a single array that seamlessly and dynamically routes data over the best connection without the input or even the knowledge of the client, similar to how cell base towers route cellular data (including voice).

It's so useful for me. Without any networking knowledge before, it's really hard to understand texts on online tutorials. However, I can imagine how the network works just by watching your animated videos. Love the channel.

This channel is pure gold and it's free
Keep it up!

Most mesh wifi technologies take advantage of different wave channels and frequencies that are available. Usually, special frequencies are used as direct connections among standalone access points. Those direct connections are essentially the LAN cables that run through a building or house. Through those special connections, data can securely and quickly run towards device destinations. Most mesh wifi routers utilise higher frequency channels to establish strong lossless connections like 5GHz channels. This allows access points to route packets without any data being lost and at an expected rate, similar to how wired connections are expected to work.
