How old is the Internet (the Net)? When was it created?
It’s hard to say exactly. The research that led to what we now know as the Internet was begun in the 1960s.
Who created the Internet?
Again, it’s hard to say exactly who created it. The initial research was carried out by the Advanced Research Projects Agency in America, funded by the US government.
Did the Internet become popular quickly?
It took many years for the Internet to become popular around the world. It’s only really since the mid-90s that the Internet has been a part of our daily lives.
How do you get online?
To get connected, you need a computer, the right connection software and a modem connected to the phone line. You also need an account with an Internet Service Provider (ISP), which acts as a gateway between your PC and the rest of the Net.
How fast are today’s internet connections?
Today, ISPs offer a broadband, high-speed connection. The most common types are cable – offered by local cable TV companies – and ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line), which works through phone lines. They are both faster than the traditional dial-up telephone connection. Broadband access is also offered by some electricity networks. This competing technology, known as power-line Internet, provides low-cost access via the power plug, but is still in development.
How long has broadband existed?
Since the late 1990s.
How much does broadband access cost?
It depends on which company you choose. Nowadays, some companies even offer free broadband.
Why do you need a modem?
A modem (modulator/demodulator) converts digital signals into analogue signals so that data can be transmitted across the phone or cable network.
What does TCP/IP mean?
The language used for data transfer on the Internet is known as TCP/IP (transmission control protocol/Internet protocol). This is like the Internet operating system. Every computer connected to the Net is identified by a unique IP address.
Are there other ways of accessing the Internet?
Other methods of internet access include Wi-Fi, satellite, mobile phones and TV sets equipped with a modem. Wi-fi-enabled laptops or PDAs allow you to connect to the Net if you are near a wireless access point, in locations called hotspots (for example, a Wi-Fi café, park or campus). Sattelite services are used in places where terrestrial access is not available (for example, on ships at sea). High-end mobile phones provide access through the phone network.
