Bandwidth Management Training and Implementation for KDMP Cangkuang Wetan Wi-Fi Optimization

Abstract

The Cangkuang Wetan Village Cooperative plays an essential role in supporting the rural economy through various financial services and commodity distribution. In its daily operations, seamless transactions heavily depend on internet network infrastructure. However, limited facilities and the absence of bandwidth allocation management have triggered network congestion, particularly during peak hours when operational staff and visitors share a single unrestricted connection. This community service initiative aims to resolve these issues through the socialization and implementation of bandwidth management technology using the Queue Tree method on MikroTik Router devices. The execution method was structured into five main stages: network requirements analysis, logical topology design, routing system configuration, Quality of Service (QoS) testing based on TIPHON standards, and knowledge transfer training for cooperative staff. The implementation results demonstrate significant network performance improvements, where data allocation is successfully and equitably distributed according to operational priorities. Post-implementation QoS testing proves a drastic reduction in delay and a packet loss rate suppressed to near 0%. Socially, the workshop successfully enhanced the staff's understanding of basic network management. This technological and educational intervention has proven effective in guaranteeing the stability of the cooperative's information system, ultimately leading to improved public service quality for the community of Cangkuang Wetan Village.
