[0053] The 5G router of the present invention supports the Wireless WAN+Ethernet WAN mechanism, wherein the Wireless WAN includes 5G access and WIFI Station access, and provides three data paths, namely, a 5G data transmission path, a WIFI data transmission path, and an Ethernet data transmission path. After one of the data transmission paths is disconnected, the data traffic can be immediately switched to another data transmission path, which can cope with complex and diverse situations in the private network environment, meet the needs of multi-data path connection and multi-data path dynamic switching of terminal devices to be connected to the Internet, and improve the stability of the network.

[0054] In one embodiment of the WIFI, Ethernet and 5G triple-network integration routing system of the present invention, in the 5G data transmission path, after the 5G module of the 5G router dials into the network, the terminal to be connected to the Internet communicates with the 5G router, the 5G router communicates with the base station, and the base station communicates with the Internet or the core network.

[0055] Here, if Figure 1 As shown in the figure, in the 5G data transmission path (UP LINK PATH1), the 5G router (5G Router) dials into the network through the 5G module, and transmits the data of the downstream terminal (PC) device to the Internet or the core network through the NR network, thereby realizing reliable 5G data transmission.

[0056] In one embodiment of the WIFI, Ethernet and 5G triple-network integration routing system of the present invention, in the WIFI data transmission path, after the 5G router configures WIFI as an access device or slave device mode, the terminal to be connected to the Internet communicates with the 5G router, the 5G router communicates with the WIFI hotspot, the WIFI hotspot communicates with the computer room, and the computer room communicates with the Internet or the core network.

[0057] Here, if Figure 1 In the WIFI data transmission path (UP LINK PATH2) shown, the 5G Router configures WIFI to Station (access device or slave device) or Delay (access device or slave device) mode, connects to the WIFI AP that supports data forwarding in the environment, and forwards the data of the downstream terminal (PC) device to the Internet or core network through the WIFI AP, thereby realizing reliable IFI data transmission.

[0058] In one embodiment of the WIFI, Ethernet and 5G triple-network integration routing system of the present invention, in the Ethernet data transmission path, the Ethernet port of the 5G router is connected to the upstream network device by wire, the terminal to be connected to the Internet communicates with the 5G router, the 5G router communicates with the upstream network device through the Ethernet port, the upstream network continues to communicate with the computer room, and the computer room communicates with the Internet or the core network.

[0059] Here, if Figure 1 As shown, in the Ethernet data transmission path (UP LINK PATH3), one of the network ports on the 5G Router is configured as an uplink Ethernet port, which is connected to an upstream network device (upstream Router) that supports DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) PPPoE and other dial-up services in the environment;

[0060] 5G Router is used to assign addresses to PCs and forward PC data to upstream network devices;

[0061] The data of the downstream terminal devices is forwarded by 5G Router to the Internet or core network for communication to achieve reliable transmission of Ethernet data.

[0062] In one embodiment of the WIFI, Ethernet and 5G triple-network integration routing system of the present invention, it also includes:

[0063] The monitoring and control module is used to monitor whether the 5G data transmission path, the WIFI data transmission path and the Ethernet data transmission path are currently available. If the currently used data transmission path is not available, the currently used data transmission path is switched to another available data transmission path.

[0064] Here, by monitoring whether the 5G data transmission path, the WIFI data transmission path and the Ethernet data transmission path are currently available, the path data transmission validity detection can be realized.

[0065] In one embodiment of the WIFI, Ethernet and 5G triple-network integration routing system of the present invention, the monitoring and control module is also used to monitor whether the 5G data transmission path, the WIFI data transmission path and the Ethernet data transmission path are currently available through a data keep-alive mechanism.

[0066] Here, after each data transmission path is successfully established, a data keepalive mechanism can be established. Through the data keepalive mechanism (for example, regularly sending keepalive datagrams to the client-specified server), it can be reliably determined whether the current data path can be used normally.

[0067] In one embodiment of the WIFI, Ethernet and 5G triple-network integration routing system of the present invention, the monitoring and control module is also used to set the priority of monitoring the 5G data transmission path, the WIFI data transmission path and the Ethernet data transmission path.

[0070] Here, the transmission priority of each path under multiple data transmission paths is defined according to the actual usage scenario. For example: Ethernet WAN has the highest priority, Wireless WAN (WIFI) has the second priority, and Wireless WAN (5G) has the lowest priority. When each data path is operational, data traffic is transmitted from the highest priority data path first, which can ensure efficient and reliable selection of data transmission paths.

[0072] Here, when the client does not enforce data transmission priority, the priority of each data path is automatically defined based on the transmission delay (TCP / UDP) of each data transmission path. For example, the data transmission path with a longer transmission delay can be set to have a lower priority.
