Home Network - Ameer Johnson

Posted by Ameer Johnson in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y2 on

​My home network is composed of a Verizon FIOS router that is connected through a coax cable from the bottom of my living room floor. That router connects wirelessly to every device in my house. I have 2 smart phones, 2 game consoles, one handheld, a printer, and 2 laptops that connect to my router. I learned a lot of stuff about the internet and home network. One of the biggest things I learned is what the difference between a router, a modem, and a modem-router was. Prior to this, I had no idea that they were different things. If I had to tell someone something about their ISP/Home network, I would tell that person that everything you do on the internet is tracked and so technically, you don't have any privacy online.

This is my L.A.N internet diagram. It begins with the modem being set upstairs. The modem/router has a coax cable since my provider is Comcast. The modem/router allows things to be connect by wire or wireless. Then the modem/router is connected to a smart TV. As well as my other devices which are a wireless printer, 2 ipads and 3 iphones and 4 laptops. I already knew some things about the internet and my modem/router. But I never knew anything about it in full detail. I learned that the wire connected in my modem/router is a coax cable and that different service providers use different cables. I don't really know what I would tell other people about having a home network, maybe that nothing is actually on the internet.

  1. explain your L.A.N. Local Area Network - all the devices on your internet connection.
  2. reflect on what you learned about networks, did you have an OMG moment that you learned something new and interesting? if now write about what you learned.
  3. what would you tell other people that they need to know about having an ISP/Home network?

  1. explain your L.A.N. Local Area Network - all the devices on your internet connection.                                           My L.A.N is Comcast - I have # laptops, Four phones, two ipads ,two smart tv's , and an alarm system.
  2. reflect on what you learned about networks, did you have an OMG moment that you learned something new and interesting? if now write about what you learned.                                                                                                 I had an OMG moment when I had found out about how packets are sent from a building to my device so I can get on the website or download something.    
  3. what would you tell other people that they need to know about having an ISP/Home network?                                   I would tell them to be very careful about the sites they go on and what they download or upload because you can get into a lot of trouble. The reason why is because nothing is safe everything is public when you search or download something.

My home network starts with the internet coming delivering to the Fios box in my basement. Then, the box sends a Ethernet wire through the floor and into a router. The router is hard wired to my To my Desktop PC. All of the other devices ( Phones, Tablets, and Laptops) are wirelessly connected to my router.  The only thing I really learned is that my internet is my internet was really expensive. I would tell people that they need to be financial healthy in order to be keeping up with your ISP bills.

My L.A.N Local Area Network has many things connected to it. For example, phones, a computer, tablets, laptops, and a printer.
The thing I learned about networks is that everything is connected to one another. For example, it all starts with the internet, then it goes to the coax cable, it then goes into the router, modem, or modem router, and lastly into the devices that are connected to the modem/router for internet. Another thing I learned about networks is that every time you go on any websites, it is actually sending a message to some states and then to another country all within a matter of seconds to have access to that website you are requesting to go on. The things I would tell other people they need to know about having an ISP/Home Network is that they should know where the internet provider in the house or building is and how everything is connected.

On my home network, there is an Apple TV (Wi-Fi), parent's iPad (Wi-Fi), parent's desktop (connected using Ethernet), my laptop (Wi-Fi), my brother's laptop (Wi-Fi), the home phone (phone line), four smartphones (one per person, Wi-Fi and 4G), and a wireless Epson printer (Wi-Fi).
Although I was aware of this before I learned it in tech class, I did have an OMG moment about the fact that our exact locations can be tracked down just with an IP address. It's almost scary at the fact that we all are monitored all the time across all of our devices - EVERYWHERE!
If I had to tell someone one thing about having an ISP/home network, I would say, "We're all being watched...."  ​

Home Network, Saw

My local area network has a pretty strong connection. I can load everything from all of the devices I am using within seconds. The devices connected to my ISP are smart phones, laptops, desktops, printers, gaming systems, and tablets. 
I learned that network came from the sky. At first I thought networks came from internet providers and that internet providers had a machine system thing that sends out internet signals to use. 
I would tell other people with IPS/home network that they need to know what cables are bringing internet into their home from the signals in the sky. 

My home network Kielar

Posted by Kamil Kielar in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y2 on

My home network begins with the internet being transmitted into my modem/router. Next are the two devices that are hard wired in are my smart TV and desktop computer. Both of these devices are connected to my modem/router through an Ethernet cable. Then my combination of a modem and router allows wifi to be wirelessly distributed throughout my home and a set of devices are connected to this signal. Those devices are two laptops, four phones, an ipad, an X-Box 360, and a printer. This is my home network. Some thing I had learned about networks is all of this connection happens so quickly. I had been so surprised when we had learned about the really long journey the parts for a website take and the speed at which they complete this journey is incredible. Something that i would tell people about having a home network is that with a little bit of work anyone can find everything that you did on the internet. All the things you went on can be found and nothing is truly ever deleted. These are the things that that i would like for people to know about having a home network.
