The Internet also known as the world wide web (www), or simply the web, is an intermediate network that gives people access to vast amounts of information around the world.
The world wide web is a network that adheres to a special method of data transfer in order to establish a standard communication highway.
Information is transferred over telephone lines which read and transfer data back and forth between the computer and the website.
Anyone can send and receive information over the web using internet-enabled software, which understands online protocols, or internet languages.
How the Internet Works
The Internet can work because of a series of protocols. This protocol is a set of rules or agreements between two elements. In this case the two types of computers agree to follow a set of rules.
In the case of how the internet works, this variety of rules means that it structures the reception and transmission of data, to and from computers, and is located in some unknown location.
To find out how the protocol is active it is important to understand the protocol layer. The network is first divided into layers of protocols that function for each layer. So, let's see what the protocol is.
Application Layer Protocol
This application layer acts as the interface of the user with the system. This layer is the application of certain protocols, such as hypertext transfer protocol (or http), e-mail, chat, and file transfer protocol (FTP) in the task of uploading, uploading, etc., and then communicating with the next layer of TCP.
The transmission control protocol (TCP) layer is a form of application that requires network access that is connected to the initial TCP layer.
This protocol has rules that parse layer functions of transmission, for example between the application layer and the IP layer itself.
While receiving data, TCP will direct the data towards the intended application by taking advantage of the port number.
Internet protocol layer, the main task of this layer and the protocol layer associated with it is to provide network identification machines.
A computer connected to the internet or a local LAN will have a unique address known as an internet protocol address or simply an IP address.
These are a number of typical forms, namely xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. And from that code xxx must be in the form of numbers 000-255.
The hardware layer is the physical layer that connects the computer to the data transmission medium, which may be a telephone line, cellular, or satellite connection.
This layer includes modems, network cards, and hardware lines that manifest in the actual connection process.
The type of protocol that parses this layer converts computer-readable digital binary data into transmitted analog data (this is not needed, in the case of internet lines being used).
How the Internet Works
User1 is using an application, say multiple browsers. Thus, it directly communicates with the application layer only. Its actions are served through the application layer to the TCP layer.
The TCP layer communicates with the IP layer and the IP layer, hence the hardware. All this is temporary, the respective protocols take care that these layers function in a proper manner.
Now, the data or request from user1 is sent to computer 2, via the internet framework. This is when the protocol becomes clear and important. All protocols on the receiving end function will be the opposite cause.
Until now, www in the development of the network concentrated a lot on the internet in the world of cable or broadband.
However, with technologies like Wi-Fi and WiMAX providing wireless space, despite criticism of wireless facilities not being as fast as broadband, it's time to look at how wireless internet works.
Wireless Internet Works
Before answering this question, let's find out about the types of wireless internet connections.
This connection consists of a wireless connection using a router, better known as Wi-Fi, and secondly the internet which is accessed via a cellular phone network. Well, let's find out how wireless internet works, via Wi-Fi and mobile.
Wi-Fi can be used by making a normal cable-free connection and is done with the help of a router. A router, as the name suggests, is a rerouting device.
It contains a low-power radio transmitter, and power will be connected to cables, such as telephone lines, satellite TV, and internet cable.
This router will be an electrical signal and then received into a radio signal and transmitted through the air.
Meanwhile, the router also sends data on the internet and does the opposite, that is, the radio signal is converted into an electrical signal.
For Wifi compatibility, you'll need to have a computer with a wireless card attached that's also a radio sender or acceptor.
Wi-Fi can also technically be referred to in the IEEE 802.11 code. The shape also quickly evolved. For new versions such as 802.11g 802.11b, 802.11a, and the latest 802.11n.
Router technology can create Wi-Fi hotspots up to a radius of about 300 m, and the internet can only be accessed in areas where there are hotspots.
Mobile Internet on Your Phone
A system that offers 2G GPRS service is often called 2.5G. A 2G GPRS system has a speed of 56-128 kbps. The system will function to convert data on radio packets using the built-in WAP modem.
This data transmission method is known as packet switching. This packet is said to be very advantageous compared to the switching used in voice transmission on cellular networks.
The phone is connected to the same wireless connection as the connection used to make calls, but the connection is not routed to another cell phone. You will be connected to a web server.
This web server content is downloaded to your internet phone and the modem demodulates the data to be viewed by the browser.
There is also CDMA internet (Code Division Multiple Access), which has the same mechanism on different technologies.
It has much faster speed than GSM internet service. The protocols and layers are similar to those used in computers to control all these operations.
By now, you have got a lot of knowledge about how the internet works on mobile phones.
WAP-based Internet on mobile phones is indeed an option when access to electricity on larger devices is limited.
However, the disadvantages associated with the internet on mobile are small screen size, lack of multitask windows, lack of ease of navigation, and speed.
In Japan, the newer and faster mobile networks use a technology called i-mode which makes working the internet on the phone a bit more satisfying.
With this article it is hoped that your questions have been answered. Now that you have a good understanding of how the internet works, have fun playing www safely on any device.
