How The Internet Works; (The Internet, The Basis of Modern Technology and Innovations)

in Project HOPE4 years ago

Imagine a day without internet connection in the world, I am sure it will be like the worst nightmare for a lot of people. Every year, there is always a device to be integrated to the internet. Ha it ever crossed your mind to find out how your emails and chats utilizes the internet to get to its destination and how many people are using the same internet. Maybe you haven’t thought about this complex network that gets everything done with ease. Have you thought about the network of computers communicating together and how the service get to access data and store the data you keep. Have you thought about how phones, radios, routers, servers, network masts and towers, and satellites connects?

The Internet is a collection of single computers loosely link together globally, using telephone network which is a combination of copper cable and fiber-optic cable, wireless radio wave and the satellite. The combination of internet protocols (IPs) and Transport Control Protocol is how internet the internet works.

The Internet Origin

In the 1960s the military wanted to have a decentralize network that could help the government to send message as well as help military personnel communicate with one another and that brought about the ARPANET. The internet’s job is to move information known as data from a place to another.

How It Works

The Internet is the backbone of the web which has addresses in mm.mmm.mm, which are in numbers called Internet Protocols. The browser sends a request to view a data or access an information with your device internet protocol address, via the Internet service provider which connects to the internet. The internet turns on the Domain Name Server (DNS) into an IP address of a mechanical website server with the help of a transmission control protocol. A response is given from the server either as a 200 OK message or as a 404 Document not found message.

A Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) create levels of packets of information and the packets are in binary forms. The TCP protocol placed into complex envelopes are transmitted across wires, fiber-optic cable, phone lines, WIFI, routers, to get to the location of the person that sent the request. The packets convert the numbers or bits into readable words, pictures, videos which can be understood by humans.

All this happens within the blink of an eye, making it an amazing technology and the base of all modern technology and innovation.

Thanks Piotr for always supporting

It is indeed amazing. Imagine a world without the Internet in this age. Life would have been boring.

Life would have been more than boring, maybe stone (that's why the old days is called the stone age). Thanks for the comment

So many people are internet users and do not understand how the internet work. I guess most if the things on about the computer is binary.

That is true. The internet is life although a lot of people do not understand the underlying procedures of how it works but they are certainly enjoying it.

It is currently a necessity, because everything is connected and shared online. Although it is difficult to live without it, I still remember the times when we did not have this tool, and we had a good time. It is certainly one of the things that the military has done well.

It is true that the internet is now our right. We just can't do without it.

Currently, people are more keen to their phones than to a food on the table or a chess board.

Great explanation on the connection of the system we use daily, this has described a better insight.

Thanks a lot for reading my post. I am always happy to have you around.

My humble pleasure.

The internet is now part of our human right. If there is an outage for 24 hours, a lot of people will go insane and some will lose it. The internet is life

Yes you are right, maybe fundamentals human necessity we say food, shelter, clothing, money and the internet :)

I really feel that the internet has helped us in a better way than we can imagine, I can't even imagine what this stay home period will look like without an internet facility.

The internet has helped a lot. Staying at home without the internet will be like having lunch with Trump or Kim

The internet has proven to be the home of a lot of technology that will be flagging off in the nearest future. I can imagine the world of 6G. It will be very fast that it might be harmful.

Thanks for the post
