These days is mostly cat 5e/cat 6 for the LAN, maybe some optical fiber

The WAN connection could be a multitude of thing's although, again, you'd expect it presented as either cat5,6/rj45 or fiber optic.

By far, the most common cable is Ethernet. It's not unheard of to use phone lines (modems), or Coaxial (cable modems).

Google any of them for more information.
