They contain the following information:
-headers to identify the data packets.
-the sender's/desiver's address.
-how many data packets make upthe whole 'message'.
-the identity number of each packet.
the router allows the packet information to go to a specific network destination.futhermore, it allows the data packets to be reassembled in the correct order according to identity number at the receiving station. 
The destination IP address is checks against the store routing table,when a router receives a packet of data. The address is stored in the routing table, the assigned IP address and the lease time the IP address is assigned for. The correct route is pointed by the bits forming the destination IP address in the data packet. The packet is sent to a number of routers until it reaches its final destination.]]> 2016-03-29 13:47:19 UTC https://padlet.com/compupacheco/oftie8tg9v3/wish/103044557 camilasantin99 https://padlet.com/compupacheco/oftie8tg9v3/wish/103044694 NIC( network interface card): if a device needs to connect to a network the NIC is needed, the NIC it is part od the device´s hardware and containce the MAC adress.]]> 2016-03-29 13:47:43 UTC https://padlet.com/compupacheco/oftie8tg9v3/wish/103044694 pampacalvo4 https://padlet.com/compupacheco/oftie8tg9v3/wish/103044950 Are devices that connect one LAN to another LAN that use the same protocol.

Modems are use to allowed computers to networks over long distances using the telephone networks, they run at 60 KB. Modern broadband ADSL operates at up to 100 MB per second. The term ¨asymetric¨ actually means that the modem is faster at downloading data than it is at uploading data. 
Although ADSL modems still use the existing telephone network, unlike dial-up modems they do not tie up the line while accessing the internet-they can always be ¨on¨, so internet access is available 24 hs if necessary, and the landline telephone can be use at the same time.]]> 2016-03-29 13:49:28 UTC https://padlet.com/compupacheco/oftie8tg9v3/wish/103045184 agustinalamedica https://padlet.com/compupacheco/oftie8tg9v3/wish/103045373 Advantages over Wi-Fi:

the IP addresses gives the location of a device on the internet. You can think of the IP as the addresses of the house you live in. So it is possible to move house (your IP will change) but the same people will be living in the new house (the MAC address will remain unchanged)

- Configuring all the hardware and sofware so that they work correctly together.
- If internet is required ensuring that a high speed  broadband conection exists.
- Put all the common software onto a server and make sure that a network licence had been aquired .
- set up privilegies so that users can only access to their own area or common shared area .
- Set up a network manager level of privilege .

PURCHESES OF SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE:
- Switches, hubs and any other divices needed to link everything together.
- Network cables to connect divices together.
- When Internet is needed a router is required to do this.
- A firewall is needed to help protect against hacking.
- Servers to manage network security, store common software and files, and so on.

A WAN is formed by many LANs joined together using a router or a modem. the long distances between devices produces that the WANs make use of telephone line or satellites, also they can use dedicated or leased communication lines which can be less expensive and more secure.]]> 2016-03-29 13:53:08 UTC https://padlet.com/compupacheco/oftie8tg9v3/wish/103046259 pojaghimartin https://padlet.com/compupacheco/oftie8tg9v3/wish/103046360 A typical LAN will consist of a number of computers and devices that are connected to hubs or switches. One of these will be connected to a router and a modem to allow the LAN to connect to the internet; in doing so it becomes a part of a WAN.
Advantages:
-The sharing of resources.
-Ease of communication between users.
-A network administrator to control and monitor all aspects of the network.
Disadvantages:
-Easiest spread of viruses throughout the whole network.
-Printer queues developing.
-Slower access to external networks.
-Increased security risk to compare to stand-alone computers.
-If the main server breaks down, in most cases the network will no longer function.

Devices that use bluetooth, automatically detect and conect to each other. Each device picks a random channel, and if the channel is already being used, it picks another one. This is known as spread-spectrum frequency hopping.
It is useful to transfer data between devices that are close together, also, when the speed of data transmission is not critical and for low-bandwidth applications.

Access Points (APs) are connected into the wired network at fixed locations. Several APs are needed to permit an uninterrupted wireless communication. The AP receives and transmits the data between the WLAN and the wired network structure.
Advantages:

• All computers can have access to the same services and resources 
• There is no cabling, so flexibility is improved
•  When you add new computers to the server is easy and the costs are reduced

Disadvantages:

• Anyone can enter to the network with a WLAN-enabled laptop
• There are problems of interference which can affect the signal
• The data transfer rate is slower than in a wired LAN

yes:

Magnetic stripe cards are made up of tiny magnetic particules on a plastic film.The stripe is read by swiping it through a card reader.
