A basic computer network can be described as:

• a minimum of five computers linked together
• two or more computers that are linked together
• computer and cables that link the network together
• the use of satellites linking computers together

The three essential components of every computer system include all EXCEPT

• software
• people
• hardware
• cables

Which statement is FALSE about wireless networks?

• Wireless networks are convenient
• Wireless networks use radio transmitters
• Wireless networks are slower than wired LANs
• Wireless networks are faster than wired networks

  LAN stands for:

• local area nodes
• local area network
• logical arrangement of networks
• linked-area network

The primary difference between a LAN and a WAN is:

• the number of software programs available
• the variety of hardware devices
• distance
• the number of hardware devices

Each individual computer and component attached to a network is a:

• node
• switch
• connection point
• hub

In a traditional LAN, each node on the network is connected through:

• cables
• microwaves
• satellites
• wireless transmission

MAN stands for:

• metropolitan area network
• metropolitan arranged network
• marked area network
• manufactured arrangement of networks

The common pathways on a WAN are known as:

• nodes
• the backbone
• hubs
• routers

Crossing from one LAN to another LAN or a WAN is done over:

• bridges and gateways
• routers
• backbones
• MANs
