Only 1 packet at a time can use the network resources at a time; the other packets will cause a collision in an Ethernet network. For Token Ring, only 1 packet at a time is on the network (via the token).

What does the computer term packet mean?
When information is sent over a network, it is divided into relatively small pieces, which are sent one at a time. These are called "packets".When information is sent over a network, it is divided into relatively small pieces, which are sent one at a time.

What is a traffic in computer network?
Network congestion is very much like road traffic congestion; you have too many packets trying to go through the same data pipe (or road) at the same time. A network connection has a finite throughput and can only support a certain number of packets at a time. Too many packets cause a bottleneck and slow down the network connections.
Is there activity over a network if data is not being transferred?
Yes, there is activity; packets do not have to be generated for the sole purpose of carrying data. Some protocols, such as DHCP, or DNS, or ARP generate informational packets and are not carrying data. It is rare for a network to not transmit packets for long periods of time.
What does it mean to ping a website or server?
" PING " , simply means ' Packet Internet Groper '. This is a utility that actually lets you check the speed of Packet data sent and received on a network. When an IP address is pinged, the Network Adapter send out a specific number of packets and receives it back. A calculation of the receive time is made and this is usually in milliseconds. The higher this time is the longer it has taken the packets to be received. This is not good because it means that the Network has excess packet collisions and or noise and that it is quite slow.
How did that kid send in his picture on adventure time?
he sent it to cartoon network. and that is how it ended on cartoon network
How is a computer network similar to a tv network?
the difference is that when you send a message to b. from a. b. can answer but to only a. because a. is the computer it can send anywhere at anytime and b. is a t.v. which can only send to t.v. networks anywhere but with computer networks you can send to one at a time
How do you send a message to all your friends on playstation network at the same time?
You Can't Send a Message To All Your Friends At The Same Time. Just like The Xbox you have to send it one - by - one.
On a VoIP network that uses the DiffServ QoS technique what makes certain that a router forwards packets within a given time period?
Expedited Forwarding
What OSPF packets will trigger the reset of the Dead Time?
packets
What are the negative or adverse issues of network flooding?
network flooding can use up a lot of bandwidth. network flooding is often taken advantage of in ping floods or a denial of service attacks, causing the network to crash or at least the quality of service go down. also if you don't include a time to live count or have each node keep track of which packets have been forwarded, than there is a possibility that duplicate packets will circulate forever
When a network device can both send and receive data at the same time?
full-duplex
What keeps track of data packets and in conjunction with netowrk interface cards helps the data packets find their destination without running into each other on an Ethernet network?
Oh, but they do crash into each other from time to time. In which case both senders stop, wait for a random standoff time, then attempt to resend.
