Star network? More like a black hole network if that hub goes down. Houston, we have a problem!

True, if the hub fails in a star network, it can cause a lot of issues.

Mesh network, because if one device fails, the others can just re-route the traffic. Gotta love that redundancy!

Token ring? More like 'token toss' when that token gets stuck. I'll pass on that one.

Bus network seems like the weakest link to me. One cable snip and it's party time for the IT guy.

I think a mesh network would be the most reliable option in this case.

Yeah, one break in the cable and the whole network goes down.

Star network, definitely. If the central hub goes down, the whole network's toast.

But in a mesh network, there are multiple paths so failure of one device doesn't bring down the whole network.

Yes, if the central hub fails, the whole network is affected.
