how networks work

Lets study how networks work? A network connects computers, mobile phones, peripherals, and even IoT devices. Switches, routers, and wireless access points are the essential networking basics. Through them, devices connected to your network can communicate with one another and with other networks, like the Internet.

The Internet is made up of a massive network of specialized computers called routers. Each router's job is to know how to move packets along from their source to their destination. A packet will have moved through multiple routers during its journey. When a packet moves from one router to the next, it's called a hop.

According to an infographic from the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), no one person, company, organization or government runs the Internet -- it is "a globally distributed computer network comprised of many voluntarily interconnected autonomous networks."

It explains in computing terminology  with what Network means and is one of the technical meaning.
