Ethernet cards are a necessary part of home networking and are required for broadband Internet. Networked computers can share resources, including files and attached devices like printers and external hard drives. With the rise of high-speed Internet, almost all computers include a built-in Ethernet interface. However, Ethernet cards... more »
A big benefit of the PC revolution was the standardization of hardware. Before the 1980s, every computer company made its own processors, displays and disk drives. Some standards existed, but they were the exception. As PC hardware evolved in the 1980s and '90s, standards emerged to take advantage of this huge marketplace. Many... more »

Computer networking is the engineering discipline concerned with communication between computer systems or devices. Networking, routers, routing protocols, and networking over the public Internet have their specifications defined in documents called RFCs., RFC 2026, S. Bradner, October 1996. Computer networking is sometimes considered a sub-discipline of telecommunications, computer science, information technology and/or computer engineering.
Computer networks rely heavily upon the theoretical and practical application of these scientific and engineering disciplines.
There are three types of networks:
1.Internet.
2.Intranet.
3.Extranet.
A computer network is any set of computers or devices connected to each other with the ability to exchange data.http://www.atis.org/tg2k/_computer_network.html Computer network definition Examples of different networks are:
*Local area network (LAN), which is usually a small network constrained to a small geographic area. An example of a LAN would be a computer network within a building.
*Metropolitan area network (MAN), which is used for medium size area. examples for a city or a state.
*Wide area network (WAN) that is usually a larger network that covers a large geographic area.
*Wireless LANs and WANs (WLAN & WWAN) are the wireless equivalent of the LAN and WAN.
All networks are interconnected to allow communication with a variety of different kinds of media, including twisted-pair copper wire cable, coaxial cable, optical fiber, power lines and various wireless technologies.http://www.bellevuelinux.org/network.html Computer networks defined. The devices can be separated by a few meters (e.g. via Bluetooth) or nearly unlimited distances (e.g. via the interconnections of the Internet, 2000 Third Annual International Symposium on Advanced Radio Technologies, A. Hooke,September 2000).
