Solution Overview

Problem

Internet service providers fail to recognize and properly route latency-sensitive data, leading to high latency and packet loss in online gaming and other latency-sensitive activities, while high bandwidth data suffers from performance issues due to improper routing through throttled routers and servers.

Innovation Solution

A system and method that classify internet data as latency-sensitive or bandwidth-sensitive and reroute it through optimized paths using a Gamer Private Network (GPN), minimizing latency and packet loss, with a master-slave computer system to manage LAN bandwidth and dynamically monitor server performance for efficient data routing.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If internet data is routed through standard ISP networks, then routing simplicity is maintained, but latency increases and packet loss occurs for latency-sensitive data

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transmission reliabilityVSAvoidlatency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments internet traffic into different categories (latency-sensitive and bandwidth-sensitive) and routes them through different networks. Latency-sensitive traffic is segmented and routed through the GPN, while other traffic uses standard ISP routes, resolving the contradiction by applying different routing strategies to different data types.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The GPN acts as an intermediary network between the user's LAN and the destination server. It provides optimized routing paths with lower latency and higher reliability for latency-sensitive data, mediating between the standard ISP network and the end destination to improve transmission quality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Loss of time

If internet data is routed through optimized paths, then latency is reduced, but routing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovelatencyVSAvoidrouting system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The GPN server acts as an intermediary that handles the complexity of finding optimized routes. The client software simply establishes a connection to the GPN server, which then manages the complex routing logic, path selection, and network optimization, reducing the complexity burden on the client side.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system automatically classifies traffic types and selects appropriate routing paths without requiring manual user configuration. The software self-manages the complex routing decisions based on the characteristics of the data being transmitted, reducing operational complexity for users.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Productivity

If all internet data is routed through the same path, then routing simplicity is maintained, but performance of both latency-sensitive and bandwidth-sensitive data deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transmission speedVSAvoidtraffic management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements traffic segmentation that divides internet data into latency-sensitive traffic (routed through GPN) and bandwidth-sensitive traffic (routed through standard ISP networks). This segmentation allows each type of traffic to use the most appropriate network path, improving overall productivity while managing complexity through automated classification.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Different routing qualities are applied to different types of data traffic. Latency-sensitive data receives high-quality optimized routing through the GPN, while bandwidth-sensitive data uses standard routing. This local quality differentiation optimizes performance for each traffic type without requiring complex manual management.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

4Reliability

If standard ISP routing is used, then infrastructure simplicity is maintained, but packet loss increases for latency-sensitive data

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepacket delivery reliabilityVSAvoidnetwork infrastructure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The GPN server infrastructure acts as an intermediary that provides reliable packet delivery for latency-sensitive data. It establishes dedicated connection tunnels that guarantee packet delivery and minimize loss, mediating between the client and destination server while handling the complexity of reliable transmission protocols.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

A method and system for optimizing internet traffic from a Local Area Network (LAN) to an internet based server utilizes a specific gamer private network (GPN) for the classified latency sensitive internet data. The method includes the steps of creating a gateway computer or a master-slaver computer (device) system within a local area network (LAN), and making this gateway computer control the internet data from any device within the LAN to an outside internet based server. The gateway computer sorts the internet data into various categories, including latency sensitive, bandwidth sensitive and exclusion that is neither latency sensitive nor bandwidth sensitive. Based on these classification results, the internet data within various categories are sent out via the respective routes, so as to achieve a smooth and efficient internet data transmission.
