I might be able to give you some basic information into this but nothing really deep.

when you open your web browser and type a website's URL in the address bar, that URL has a ip that is in relation to it, when you press enter that ip from the URL is a location of a server somewhere with the .HTML file(file that is the webpage) you are requesting on it, after the server gets that request from you it searches on the server for the requested file and if it finds it sends it back to you for your web browser to load.

additional information. your internet connection is probably tcp/ip and i know that tcp protocol consists of several layers that have information about certain things mac address, link layer, etc.

I don't know if this was to complicated or not good enough, for the most part i think i explained everything correctly, just hope its easy to understand.

If anthings wrong at all hopefully someone would correct it.

How DNS server caching works?

If a client send a query requesting for a particular web page to the DNS server and if the DNS server resolves the page from the other DNS servers & it will be store the same page in the DNS cache and it will give the response to the client with the requested page. If again the same web page is requested by any client then DNS server will get the web page from the DNS cache instead of again fetching the same page from the internet. With this there wont be any delay for the client to get the web page. This helps in bandwidth control. This is how the DNS server caching works.
