How many bits are there in Mac address?

48-bits. Probably so that there would be enough for every network device to have a worldwide unique address. This 48-bit address space contains potentially 2^48 or 281,474,976,710,656 possible MAC addresses. (2 to the 48th power.)

Best cable provider packages?

Once you have decided to get cable, you'll have to decide on which provider you want to deliver your services. While customers in some areas do not have a choice, in many areas of the country, there are multiple providers from which to choose. Making the right decision at the outset is important for many reasons.

Price is usually one factor consumers consider when they compare services from different providers. While it is important to comparison shop, make sure you are comparing essentially the same services. Look at the channel line-up that different providers offer and compare this with the price. Also, pay attention to introductory offers. Some cable providers will offer a fantastic deal for new customers, but then the price goes up drastically within a few months. If you are considering one of these deals, make sure you figure in the price change.

Many individuals don't consider a company's customer service until they need it, and then it may be too late. With any type of cable or Internet service, there are times when you will need customer service. Before choosing a cable provider, find out what kind of customer service they offer.

Some companies have localized customer service, where the representatives are in the same town you are. This can make a big difference in the quality of the customer service you receive. Other companies use call centers in large metropolitan areas to provide their customer service and when you call the number provided to you by the company, you may be talking to someone across the country. Other companies outsource their customer service to other countries and you may have difficulty understanding the representative when you call.

By finding out the quality of customer service a company offers before you sign up with them, you may be able to avoid headaches down the road. Look online for customer reviews about the particular company you are interested in. In addition, ask them about their customer service, and look at their website as well. Some companies feature a live chat option where you can get instant help or answers to your questions. This is attractive because you don't have to wait on hold on the phone.

It is also important to consider the quality of the services the company provides. While this may be hard to determine before signing up with them, here again, customer reviews will come in handy. Look online for reviews and you will get a good idea of the quality of their services. While there will almost always be some negative reviews on any company, look to see what the majority of customers have to say before making a decision.

Is their a chat room for 11 year olds?

No 'chat rooms' exactly, but I suppose Club Penguin is one. 2 sign up, first click the box next 2 'i agree to the clubpenguin rules', then continue. Enter your desired penguin name, for instance, mine is 'snowglu'. Then click a colour you'd like you're penguin to be. (don't worry, you can change this later on in the game) If the penguin name is already taken, choose another. Then enter a password. I must be easy to remember, as you'll need it every time you log in. Dont share it with anyone! Once you've done that, type in your/your perants/guardians email. (Make sure they know that you're using it first or Clubpenguin can ban you) Then it will say the activation email has been sent. When the email arrives in the chosen email address, the activation code will be there. Click on the link, and hey presto! You're playing. To make it completely free chat, follow the steps in the 'help' section. Have fun playing! :D

Virtual Family Kingdom is another one that is excellent and safe. Just click on the Play Now button on the home page to get started. Registration is easy.

What is icmp?

ICMP is the "Internet Control Message Protocol". ICMP packets are small packets used in local networks and on the Internet, most typically, for network troubleshooting and problem location. ICMP may be used for reporting the route packets are taking to reach an arbitrary destination either locally or on the Internet or to determine if a particular local or Internet connected device is reachable and/or responding.

Various operating systems make use of the ICMP protocol for the above mentioned purposes via utilities such as 'traceroute' and 'ping' in the UNIX/Linux world, or 'tracert' and 'ping' in the Windows world.

Why Can't the IP address 169.254.226.4 be routed on the internet?

Addresses that start with 169.254 are assigned when the computer doesn't find a DHCP server. Probably they are not routed because the network won't be unique - you might have different networks with the same address range. Different subnets have to have different address ranges.
