internet though ISPs.
Solution
Internet in simple words means network of networks i.e. connection of large no devices to each
other either physically (with cables) or virtually (wireless connection).
Internet is a hub of infinte information. It is logically place where all informations are kept and
retrive from anywhere when required due to this, these days it is getting more popularity as it
reduces physical carriying of data with more security and comfortable.
Internet evolved in late 1950s but it gets popularity in 2000s at that time datas are sent through
circuit switching techniques which is very slow. After that circuit switching replaced with packet
switching which is more secure and fast (2G, 2.5) then slowly it increase data demand let
evolution of 3G which provides is capable of providing upto 2Mbps and again it is not able meet
increasing data demand then it moved to 4G (upto to 100Mbps) and 5G is testing period.
Protocols used:
http: hyper text transfer protocol (used for transmission of datas in form of text)
https: hyper text transfer protocol (used for transmission datas in form text but more secure than
http)
ftp: file tranfer protocol (used to transfer multimedia files)
TCP: transmission control protocol (used for establishing a virtual connection between a
destination and a source) etc
For accessing we need ISPs (Internet Service Provider) which is responsible to provide internet
connectivity to individual user. The most common ways to connect to an ISP are by using a
phone line (dial-up) or broadband connection.
