Examples include circuit-switched telephone lines, radio wave transmission, and optical fiber. New developments have successively increased transmission rates. In ca. 1960, a 110 bit/s line was normal on the edge of the WAN, while core links of 56 or 64 kbit/s were considered fast. Today, households are connected to the Internet with dial-up, asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL), cable, WiMAX, cellula... undo Tags: Reverted Mobile edit Mobile web edit

Packets addressed in these ranges are not routable on the public Internet; they are ignored by all public routers. Therefore, private hosts cannot directly communicate with public networks, but require network address translation at a routing gateway for this purpose.

This distinction stems from the fact that common local area network (LAN) technologies operating at lower layers of the OSI model (such as the forms of... undo Tags: Reverted Mobile edit Mobile web edit

Wide area networks are often established with leased telecommunication circuits.[1] A local area network (LAN) with connection to a wide area network (WAN) Businesses, as well as schools and government entities, use wide area networks to relay data to staff, students, clients, buyers and suppliers from various locations around the world. In essence, this mode of telecommunication allows a bu... undo Tags: Reverted Mobile edit Mobile web edit
