I used the link you sent me to pay, however after confirming my email, it shows me 0% complete when I try to access it. The transition was about 9:00Pm yesterday, now it's 7:00, but I can't access it, it's still showing 0% complete.

I dont understand what you are talking about ? what transition ? what is 0% ? you need to be a bit more detailed here. Maybe email me [e-mail]

What happens if the MED of R1 router is 0 but the local preference for other router R2 is 200(more than the R1), how BGP know or decides which path to go even after the hops are same(the no:of paths are same). How does it know which path to go?

[@LearnCantrill]

I say in the video which takes priority :)

We cannot pay more than $20 with a credit or debit card in Nigeria and PayPal has also been banned in Nigeria. This makes it difficult for your Nigerian students to profit from the aboundance knowledge that is gushing from your content.
