  • abbreviation Technical meaning of NYETWORK notwork 3
  • noun Definition of nyetwork in Technology (networking, humour)   /not'werk/ A network that is performing badly. Said at IBM to have originally referred to a particular period of flakiness on IBM's VNET corporate network ca. 1988; but there are independent reports of the term from elsewhere. The joke sounds better in Russian, where "nyet" means "no", hence nyetwork /nyet'werk/. 1
