What is a load balancing router and why we use it at our coworking space in Lombok
In today’s world, we use the internet for almost everything, whether it’s for work, entertainment, or communication. With so much internet traffic, it’s essential to have a system in place to ensure that all the data gets routed efficiently to its intended destination. This is where a load balancing router comes in.
A load balancing router is a device that helps to manage and distribute network traffic across multiple connections. Imagine the internet as a highway with multiple lanes, and the load balancing router as a traffic cop, directing traffic to the most efficient lanes to avoid congestion and delays.
When you have multiple devices connected to the internet, such as computers, phones, and tablets, they all compete for bandwidth, which can cause slow internet speeds and poor performance. A load balancing router solves this issue by distributing the traffic evenly across multiple connections, which can include cable, DSL, or fiber connections.
The load balancing router determines the best connection to use for each type of traffic, such as email, web browsing, or video streaming. For example, if you’re streaming a video, the router will use the connection with the fastest download speed to ensure smooth playback.
The load balancing router also helps to ensure that the network remains stable and reliable by monitoring the connections and automatically switching to a backup connection if one fails. This ensures that your internet connection remains uninterrupted even if one of your connections goes down.
Another benefit of a load balancing router is that it can help to reduce your internet costs by utilizing multiple connections from different providers. This can help to prevent reliance on a single internet service provider, which can be a problem if there is an outage or if the connection becomes congested.
In conclusion, a load balancing router is an essential device that helps to optimize and distribute network traffic across multiple connections, ensuring fast and reliable internet speeds. It helps to prevent congestion and ensure that your internet connection remains uninterrupted, making it an ideal solution for both home and business use. So, if you’re looking to improve your internet speeds and reliability, consider investing in a load balancing router.
Network requirements for video call in Lombok and the rest of the world.
In recent years, online video meetings have become an integral part of communication in various industries. With remote work becoming the norm, online video meetings are now more crucial than ever for collaboration, communication, and productivity. However, the quality of online video meetings can be affected by network requirements, which can make or break the meeting experience. In this blog, we will discuss the network requirements for online video meetings.
- Bandwidth The first and foremost requirement for online video meetings is sufficient bandwidth. Video conferencing requires a lot of data to be transmitted in real-time. The minimum recommended bandwidth for a smooth video conference is 1Mbps, but this can vary depending on the number of participants and the video resolution. Higher resolution video (such as HD or 4K) requires more bandwidth, so it’s essential to check your internet connection speed before starting a video meeting.
- Latency Latency is another crucial factor that can impact the quality of online video meetings. Latency is the time it takes for data to travel from one point to another. High latency can cause delays and distortions in the audio and video, making it difficult to communicate effectively. To minimize latency, it’s important to use a stable and fast internet connection with low latency.
- Jitter Jitter is a variation in the delay of the data packets, which can cause choppy audio and video. Jitter can occur due to network congestion, packet loss, or other factors. To minimize jitter, it’s important to use a network with low packet loss and congestion. Using a wired internet connection can help to reduce jitter compared to a wireless connection.
- Quality of Service (QoS) Quality of Service (QoS) is a feature that allows you to prioritize network traffic for specific applications or devices. QoS can be used to prioritize video conferencing traffic, ensuring that it receives sufficient bandwidth, latency, and jitter to provide a smooth video conference experience.
- Firewall and Network Address Translation (NAT) Firewalls and Network Address Translation (NAT) can sometimes interfere with online video meetings by blocking or changing the network traffic. It’s important to ensure that your firewall and NAT settings allow the necessary traffic for video conferencing to pass through.
- Upstream and Downstream Bandwidth Upstream bandwidth refers to the data transfer rate from your device to the internet, while downstream bandwidth refers to the data transfer rate from the internet to your device. Both upstream and downstream bandwidth are essential for online video meetings. A good rule of thumb is to have a minimum of 3Mbps upstream and 3Mbps downstream bandwidth for a high-quality video conference.
In conclusion, online video meetings have become an essential part of modern communication, and their success is heavily dependent on the network requirements. The above requirements should be considered when setting up and conducting online video meetings to ensure that the meeting experience is smooth and successful.
At cokreate, we have dedicated speeds per device ( 30 Mbps download & 8 Mbps upload ) so the speed that you will receive on your connection if more then sufficient. Also the latency is around 2 ms, this means there is no delay.
The total speed of the network at cokreate is 500 Mbps download & 125 Mbps upload.

- Cost: While the flexible membership options can be a benefit, the cost of coworking spaces can add up, especially for those who need a workspace every day.

IN THE PAST: “Lombok-Belgium Fusion Fest” at SAME SAME Hangout
Lombok and Belgium may be worlds apart geographically, but at SAME SAME Hangout, they come together in a unique culinary embrace. The “Lombok-Belgium Fusion Fest” was a bold initiative that celebrated the harmonious blend of Lombok’s vibrant flavors with Belgium’s rich culinary heritage.
A Fusion Like No Other The festival was an ode to innovation – a challenge we took upon ourselves to intertwine the essence of Lombok’s tropical spirit with the heartwarming comfort of Belgian cuisine. It was a week-long festivity that turned into a feast for the senses.
Dishes that Danced with Diversity Our chefs, armed with spices from the hills of Lombok and recipes from the cobblestone streets of Brussels, created a menu that was as daring as it was delicious.
Highlight: The ‘Nasi Goreng meets Stoofvlees’ – a dish where the quintessential Indonesian fried rice was topped with tender Belgian beef stew, simmered to perfection with a hint of local sambal for that extra kick.
Dessert Delight: The ‘Pisang Waffle’ – a delightful twist on the classic Belgian waffle, topped with caramelized Lombok bananas, a sprinkle of palm sugar, and a scoop of artisanal coconut ice cream.
A Celebratory Atmosphere With traditional Lombok music blending with tunes from Brussels, the ambiance was electric. The vibrant décor, featuring motifs from both cultures, set the stage for an immersive experience.
More Than Just a Festival “Lombok-Belgium Fusion Fest” wasn’t just about food; it was a testament to the beauty of cultural fusion. It was about pushing boundaries and celebrating the unlikely yet wonderful union of different worlds.
While the Fusion Fest has concluded, the spirit of exploration continues at SAME SAME Hangout. Our regular menu features hints of this fusion, and we’re always experimenting with new combinations.

“French Fiesta Fridays” at our restaurant in South Lombok
Nestled in the heart of Kuta Lombok, SAME SAME Hangout has always been a bridge between diverse culinary worlds. But on Fridays, for a special season, the bridge led straight to the charming bistros of Paris with our “French Fiesta Fridays.”
A Parisian Escape Every Friday There’s a certain je ne sais quoi about French cuisine – the intricate flavors, the delightful aromas, and the art of dining that’s been perfected over centuries. Recognizing the allure of such a gastronomic tradition, SAME SAME Hangout decided to roll out the red carpet for patrons every Friday evening with a celebration of French food and wine.
Three Courses, Unlimited Memories The core of “French Fiesta Fridays” was a meticulously curated three-course meal that took diners on a journey from the bustling streets of Paris to the serene countryside of Provence.
Entrée: A serving of Ratatouille, a vibrant vegetable medley stewed to perfection, evoking the rustic charm of French countryside kitchens.
Plat Principal: The Coq au Vin, a rich and robust chicken dish slow-cooked in red wine, mushrooms, and a melody of herbs, capturing the essence of classic French culinary artistry.
Dessert: To conclude the meal, patrons indulged in Tarte Tatin, an upside-down caramelized apple tart that’s as French as the Eiffel Tower.
Wine and Dine, the French Way No French meal is complete without the right wine. With selected French wines paired for each course, diners got to sip and savor the authentic flavors of France, elevating the dining experience.
An Ongoing Celebration of Cultures While the “French Fiesta Fridays” was a limited-time event, the spirit of celebrating global cuisines lives on at SAME SAME Hangout. Whether it’s the comfort of Belgian bites or the exotic appeal of Asian delicacies, there’s always something special on the menu.
