LAN stands for Local Area Network, it is a small network like an office. A WAN is called Wide Area Network and is a connection of LANs. An ISP stands for internet Service Provider and they are the companies that charge you each month to access the Internet.

What happens when the speed of the link between a home LAN and its ISP is changed?

Usually nothing happens when the speed between a home client and the ISP is changed if the speed is increased. This is because the modem you are using and/or the router you have at home is limited to a usual maximum of around 10 megabits per second on the WAN (ISP) connection. Internally the LAN home network is running much faster but the speed outside the house to the ISP is slower.


WHAT IF I WAN?

WAN is a acronym for Wide Area Network. WAN is an area on the network that is after your modem going to the ISP as well as other networks. Anything inside your home is a LAN or Local Area Network. If you explain what you want to do further then someone may be able to answer your question better.
