What else can I help you with?
Which network device has the capability of amplifying and regenerating network signals but has no capability of routing or segmenting?
I would say an ethernet extender/booster/repeater.
When would you use a router on an Ethernet network?
to split the Internet between different computers or to make it wireless if it is a wireless router
If you want to upgrade your 100BaseT Ethernet so that it will run about 10 times the current speed what technology would you use?
You would want to move to a Gigabit network. This will require a switch capable of Gigabit speeds, network cabling capable of Gigabit speeds (Cat 5e for example), and a network interface on a computer that is also Gigabit rated. Most modern switches are Gigabit rated (even inexpensive soho switches).
What must be installed to provide a computer with physical and electronic connection to a network?
In a PC there is three pieces of hardware that could give you Network and/or internet connectivity. In most modern computers, the motherboard contains an Ethernet connection, so no hardware installation would be required, except for of course the motherboard itself. You would however how to install the network drivers for the ethernet on the motherboard for it to work. For motherboards without an Ethernet slot, you can buy a PCI or PCI-E network card, which contains an Ethernet port. Lastly, you could get a PCI or PCI-E wireless card, which could give you a wireless internet connection.
What hardware do you need to set up a WAN?
The software needed to set up a WAN network include a router of some sort to have network connectivity. Additionally, software would be needed on every computer that would be connected to the WAN network.
Which ethernet card can handle gigabit network traffic?
You would need the ethernet card can handle gigabit network traffic cable.
Why would your laptop need an Ethernet adapter?
If you ever plan to connect your laptop to a wired network, you will need an ethernet adapter. If you never plan to plug it in to a network or if you will always use wireless, an ethernet adapter is not necessary.
Differences between Ethernet Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet?
Here’s a concise overview of the differences between Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet: 1. **Speed** **Ethernet**: 10 Mbps **Fast Ethernet**: 100 Mbps **Gigabit Ethernet**: 1 Gbps (1000 Mbps) 2. **Standards** **Ethernet**: IEEE 802.3 (e.g., 10BASE-T) **Fast Ethernet**: IEEE 802.3u (e.g., 100BASE-TX) **Gigabit Ethernet**: IEEE 802.3z (fiber) and 802.3ab (copper, e.g., 1000BASE-T) 3. **Transmission Medium** **Ethernet**: Twisted pair or coaxial cables. **Fast Ethernet**: Twisted pair (Cat 5) and fiber optics. **Gigabit Ethernet**: Twisted pair (Cat 5e or better) and fiber optics. read more...tinyurl. com/578xthwt
Which network device has the capability of amplifying and regenerating network signals but has no capability of routing or segmenting?
I would say an ethernet extender/booster/repeater.
How would you access the internet with a laptop?
Either connect via a wireless network, connect through a 3G network or connect your laptop with an ethernet cable.
How do you fix an Ethernet port in my computer?
Your best bet would be to install a network card. If that works, just disable the onboard network port in device manager.
How are Ethernet networks setup?
Plug in one end of the Ethernet cables into the computer and the other end into either another computer or into an Ethernet switch with other computers connected the same way. Then set up you network settings according to your needs. Easiest way would be to connect all the computers into a router and have it control the network.
How data can be transferred using wired and wireless methods?
This is assuming that there is no outside access to the Ethernet network such as a Internet connection. If there were then firewalls would be needed to prevent a outside intrusion of the network. In addition to physical access security, a wireless network requires authentication and encryption to prevent unauthorized devices from connecting to the wireless network or capturing and decoding the data that is being transferred via a wireless network connection. If the wireless network has outside WAN access then you would also need firewalls as with the Ethernet network.
When would you use a router on an Ethernet network?
to split the Internet between different computers or to make it wireless if it is a wireless router
What if there are no mac addresses and all adapters use ip addresses?
Ethernet devices are identified by their MAC address, not an IP address. If their were no MAC address incorporated into the device then it is not following the rules define for the ethernet protocol. It would not be an ethernet network adapter or it would be a defective ethernet network adapter. As the LANs are designed for arbitrary network layer protocols, not just IP, so if the adapters are assigned with IP addresses rather than MAC addresses, than it will be difficult for adapters to support other network layers. Even if the adapters use entire network layer addressing schemes, they will need to be reconfigured every time they are powered up. So it is imperative to use neutral MAC address independent of network layer addressing schemes in order to ensure better performance of network.
What network devices works at Layer 1 of the OSI model and connects multiple Ethernet segments together?
Physical layer devices would be a hub or a repeater to connect multiple Ethernet segments together.
How would a repeater be used in an Ethernet segment?
Repeaters are usually used in coaxial based ethernet networks. For this purpose they are used to extend the length of a network segment. For example, in a 10base2 ethernet network the maximum length of a segment is 180 meters. A repeater could join two segments together to increase the length of the network and the number of clients in the network. In today's modern networks you will see neither coaxial networks nor repeaters in a LAN. Repeaters are used for DSL transmissions, but not for LANS.
