The Seven layers of the OSI model are:
Application
Presentation

Transport
Network
Data-Link
Physical
I think the answer to your question is the Application layer.

You can use bluetooth, a simple wired connection, or wifi to connect your computers to a network.
A Network Interface Card (NIC) is a hardware device that handles an interface to a computer network and allows a network-capable device to access that network. It is a computer hardware component designed to allow computers to communicate over a computer network.
Network Managed Services, from CenturyLink, allow customers to have CenturyLink monitor their networks and prevent downtime. Network Managed Services offer a complete networking monitoring service to allow companies to direct their resources elsewhere.
Network interface controller (NIC) teaming is the process of grouping several physical network controllers into a single logical NIC. NIC teaming enhances fault tolerance by increasing the availability of a server's network connection. Multiple network paths also allow balancing network traffic for better performance.
To connect a computer to other computers (i.e. to a network) you need a network adapter, also called a Network Interface Card. This adapter should be suitable for a network which you want to connect to. Wireless adapters are for wireless networks, wired adapters are for wired networks.A network connection.if its file sharing a local network over your lan, or if its a game, social networking site on the internet its the internet.A network card connnects to a router (wireless or LAN) the the router connects to other computers or a modem (intranet-telephone interface)

A network interface card (NIC) is a computer circuit board or card that is installed in a computer so that it can be connected to a network. Network interface cards provide a dedicated, full-time connection to the network.
The purpose of buying a Cisco WIC, or wide area network interface card, is to use it together with a router to run a wide area network of computers. Some models of Cisco WIC only allow data transmission over the network while other models allow voice and data transmission over the network.
A NIC or network interface card will allow you to gain acccess to your local network or the internet. Without a network interface card, you cannot send or receive emails, watch youtube, print to network printers, or play video games online. However, that's not to say the the computer is completely useless without it (just mostly useless). You can still run applications that have been installed locally on the PC such as your Microsoft office applications or any video games that you may run off of a CD. Network interface cards can be picked up anymore for about $25 on average from your local best buy, frys, or other computer store.
