What speed are wireless N G and B?

Wireless standards 802.11b, g, and n use the 2.4Ghz frequency band to operate. Revision B was released in 1999, and operates at 11 megabits per second. Wireless G was released as a standard in 2003 and operates at up to 54 megabits per second, and in some cases can be used at up to 128 megabits per second. Wireless N devices, which operate under the wireless N draft 2 specification (not yet officially released) have faster transfer speeds. the 802.11n draft 2 specification allows speeds up to 600Mbps, but the speeds of devices may vary.

Why would a computer omit four buzzes then shut down prematurely?

When you turn your computer on, it runs a self-diaganostic to make sure everything is working properly. This is called the Power On Self Test, also known as POST. When POST detects an error, it emits a series of beeps. These are called beep codes. Your 4 beeps is a beep code because something is wrong with your computer. If you still have your motherboard manual, look under beep codes and look for 4 beeps, and it will tell you what is wrong. If you don't have your manual anymore, you have to search on google for beep codes for your specific motherboard. Every computer has a different set of beep codes, so you have to find your specific ones to find out what is wrong. -Jesse

Device for connecting two or more computers by phone?

That would be called a Modem.

A Modem is an acronym for MOdulator, DEModulator.

There are two technologies used for computer modems; tone shift and phase shift. Tone shift takes the ones and zeroes and turns them into tones, and support speeds up to 9600 baud (9600 bits per second, roughly). Phase shift takes the ones and zeroes and turns them into phased tones, and supports speeds of up to 56KBaud (56 thousand bits per second).

Are computer buses the components of computer?

Computer buses are the wires that send data around a computer. So, they are indeed components of a computer. However, in modern computers, the buses are a part of the motherboard. In older computer times, there were separate backplanes that everything else plugged into. So the name bus came from that period of time, and they were indeed separate components then.
