Hello there , wellcome you again , First of all sorry for the long delay as i make , i will assure you that will delivered crunchy topics afterwards :)

For those who are new to my page i introduce myself as a student who post about networking and other technical related things, delivered in my simple english, this networking series were called NEWBIE EDITION because my blogs are made by absolute beginners ….. ok let’s start,

First we take an look around our home , what are all the things are given to you to access the internet?

Most home networks consist of at least two separate networks.

The Public Network.

The Private Network.

The public network coming in from the service provider.ISP like airtel, bsnl,jio like that.

Then the private network is the router is connected to the internet.
Most likely, the home router is equipped with both wired and wireless capabilities. in my opinion private networks are great because you can able to use laptop and desktop flawlessy without the laying of Ethernet.
A home network is a small LAN with devices that usually connect to an integrated router and to each other in order to exchange information.

Technically the router have inbuild many of the things like modem, wireless connectivity etc.

Wireless technology is fairly easy and inexpensive to install.
Advantages of wireless LAN technology include mobility, scalability, flexibility, cost savings, reduced installation time, and reliability in harsh environments.

In addition to an integrated router, there are many different types of devices that might be connecting to a home network,
Examples include desktop computers, gaming systems, smart tv systems, printers, scanners, security cameras, and climate control devices.

Small business and home routers typically have two primary types of ports: ethernet ports and internet ports. That was also called SOHO — small office and home office network.
In addition to the wired ports, many home routers include a radio antenna and a built-in wireless access point.Those type of router’s may vary depends on the budjet you have :)

Wireless technologies use electromagnetic waves to carry information between devices.
The electromagnetic spectrum includes such things as radio and television broadcast bands, visible light, x-rays, and gamma-rays.

Some types of electromagnetic waves are not suitable for carrying data. Other parts of the spectrum are regulated by governments and licensed to various organizations for specific applications.

Certain unlicensed sections of the spectrum are incorporated into consumer products, including the Wi-Fi routers found in most homes.
The wireless technologies most frequently used in home networks are in the unlicensed 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency ranges.

Bluetooth is a technology that makes use of the 2.4 GHz(giga hertz)band. Other technologies that use the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands are the modern wireless LAN technologies that conform to the various IEEE -(Institute of Electrical And Electronic Engineers)802.11 standards.

Unlike Bluetooth technology, 802.11 devices transmit at a much higher power level giving them a great range and improved throughput.

Although many home network devices support wireless communications, there are still a few applications where devices benefit from a wired switch connection. The most commonly implemented wired protocol is the Ethernet protocol.
Directly connected devices use an Ethernet patch cable, usually unshielded twisted pair. Category 5e is the most common wiring used in a LAN. The cable is made up of 4 pairs of wires that are twisted to reduce electrical interference.

For those homes that do not have UTP -(Unshield Transfer Protocol)wiring, there are other technologies, such as powerline, that can distribute wired connectivity throughout the premises.

if no! comment down below , i will try to improve my writing 😃, and if you want to continue this blog playlist , follow me on medium and linkedin as well :)

alright this is the things are i wanted to said in this blog post , hope it gives any types of idea’s in networking basic’s thank you and if you have any commendaries , please use the comment section as much as you can , if you like this blog gives 👏.
