In the past two decades, the accessibility of Internet connection worldwide along with the gradual deployment and acceptance of broadband connections to Internet has very much affected and improved the user’s experience when using the Internet. Broadband is a one of telecommunication that use wide band of frequencies that can use to send and transmit information. According to Andrew (2010), “Broadband is the name given to any fast, permanent internet connection”. Nowadays, the broadband technology becomes one of the important things in daily life. The need of the broadband technology increase year by year. Broadband technology which offers high speed transmission of voice, video and data over networks and ICT utilities has make it possible …show more content…
The terms wireless broadband is defined by Margaret (n.d.) as “high-speed Internet and data service delivered through a wireless local area network (WLAN) or wide area network (WWAN)”. In Malaysia, there are three types of wireless broadband technology which are GPRS, UMTS/HSPA, and LTE. These three technologies will be discussed further. GPRS or General Packet Radio Services “is a packet data overlay onto existing GSM networks” (Srinath,N.,2011 as cited in A.K. Aini Zuriyati, O. Zainuddin, M.Muriati,2014 ). It will send and receive data over mobile telephone network and to any destination on internet when connected to computer. The key benefits of GPRS are speed, connectivity and applications. GPRS provides higher data rate than GSM (Global System for Mobile communications). It can achieve until 172kbps but usually the speed can only reach up to 15-40kbs under most conditions. GPRS is based on packet switched technology. Unlike modems used in circuit switched network that is dial-up, GPRS does not require dial-up so it is always- on service. This makes it easier for people who wants to check on their email automatically and it makes service immediately available to device thus ensure connectivity. GPRS also provides full internet applications and services to devices because of its high speed internet and always-on service. UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunication System) exploits CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) radio-access technology. It is not a substitute for GSM network rather a rectification of GSM. LTE (Long Term Evolution) is a “very good, easily deployable network technology, offering high speeds and low latencies over long distances.” (Neal, 2015). It offers a faster upload and downloads speed to user, much faster as compared to GPRS or
And unlike cable modems, DSL is not a bus technology, so the bandwidth available to the end user is more consistent. However, despite all of its positive attributes, DSL is not without flaw. For instance, in order to be eligible for DSL, the end user must be geographically within a certain distance from the central telephone office,otherwise the signal degradation is too great and DSL is unfeasible (for ADSL that distance is two miles.) In addition, numerous standards still exist for DSL,hardware is still comparatively pricey, and service is available only in limited areas. Despite these drawbacks, DSL is still a faster alternative to analog modems and ISDN, and should rival cable modems as far as actual bandwidth
Wifi WPS: It stands for “Wi-Fi Protected Setup” and provides simplified mechanisms to configure secure wireless
It offers a secure fitting together between internet browsers and websites, letting you to communicate secretive data online. Physical Layout • Topologies; topology can be measured as a computer-generated nature or construction of a system. This shape does not agree to the real physical plan of the policies on the computer network. • Ring; basically in a ring system each device (workplace, waiter, and copier) is related to two other devices, this systems a ring for the signs to travel around. Each packet of data on the network trips in one way and each device collects each box in turn until the journey 's end device receives it.
The wireless router however, wireless router is a device that will perform the same function of a router but also includes the functions of a wireless access point. This means that the wireless router will allows a laptop, phone or tablet to wirelessly connect to the home network and access the internet as
It acts as proxy from
The tablet allowed us to order whenever we were ready, with or without our server coming back to the table. It also allowed us to pay the bill whenever we were ready instead of waiting on the server to bring our check to the table. After, experiencing these first hand it is clear that although the intent is not to replace the server it felt like that was what was
Adaptive Location Data Buffering provides two different methods to occasionally confirm an open end-to-end connection with the server. If the IP address of the device is publically addressable, the server can occasionally send “alive” messages via single UDP packets to the phone. If, for security or capacity reasons, the cellular provider does not allow publically addressable IPs, the Adaptive Location Data Buffering module occasionally opens a TCP connection from the phone to the server to determine if there is a successful “alive” response from the server.
It’s an app that enables teleconferencing of members. Members can view each other and exchange audio during a meeting. This enhances communication and strengthens the bond between members. However, it requires technical know how and skills for effective usage of the app. 5.
It will be able to directed the traffic and share information on the progress of the devices host on the network. This can also be done alone. If there are any communication errors, then the data packets will be checked by the network internet layer before transmitting the data packets. This has to be clear and not be
Over the years Canada has changed in many ways, some changes were positive, and some were negative. Internet technology has played a huge role in Canada today. Before Canada had internet technology society lived very differently, there was no google, no cell phones, or any smart technology readily available for the public. Society had to write letters to communicate and use data cards and libraries to find information. In the earlier days of internet, internet was strictly used for the military in the US.
It is defined by RFC 1350. It uses a client-server architecture. After establishing an FTP connection, the user can download or upload files to and from the FTP server. It is a simple version of FTP, lacking some more advanced features FTP offers. It can be used only to send and receive files.
This gives access to different kinds of websites and information that is shared between
γ is kept proportional to the IP-ToS. The up scaling factor γup and down scaling factor γdown are considered as follows: (a) γup = 20 and γdown = 20 for video streaming (b) γup = 20p2 and γdown = 10p2 for NRT traffic and (c) γup = 40 and γdown = 10 for BE traffic. The active time for video streaming traffic and NRT traffic are taken as 4 and 2 times of the active time for BE traffic. 4)
Next, the company uses High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) to enhance the high speed 3G network in which promoting wireless broadband services. Other than that,
CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION The Internet has become the most frequently used media for the past two decades (De Leo & Wulfert, 2013). In fact, its users are increasing day after day. The Internet has brought many benefits to numerous societies and individuals, and that includes information searches, communication, commercial activities, and entertainment (Kraut et al., 1998; Korgoankar, & Wolin, 1999).
