The document discusses different types of network connections including Ethernet, wireless internet (Wi-Fi), 3G, and 4G. Ethernet uses wired connections to link computers in a local area network, while wireless internet allows devices to connect to a network without cables using IEEE 802.11 standards. 3G and 4G are mobile data standards that allow devices to connect to the internet from anywhere, with 4G being significantly faster than 3G and able to support more bandwidth-intensive activities like video streaming.

- 3. Wireless internet is way of accessing the internet without using a Ethernet cable It can be used to create a wireless local area network with a wireless router based on IEEE 802.11 standards Any device with a wireless NIC can use “Wi-Fi” however most mobile devices such as phones or tablets can do this W-fi is less secure because they do not need a Ethernet cable to access the network so people can access the network if they are in range A WLAN can be as big as its highest capacity and its range
- 4. 3G is the third generation of mobile telecommunications technology 3G is used by mobile devices to connect to the internet when there is no internet access On the phone network O2, the speed of 3G is 2.9 Mb/s. This is higher then the average speed of 1.8 Mb/s
- 5. 4G is the new forth generation of mobile telecommunications technology New products that originally uses 3G now have been upgraded to use 4G such as apples “iPad air” 4G is being record as 5-7 times faster then 3G, this means it can be used for more such as streaming media
