    Introduction
    8 Bits = 1 Byte
    Synchronous means upload and download speed are the same
    Asynchronous means upload and download speeds are different
    Latency is the time it takes for bits to get from the sender to the receiver
    Speed Tests -- WhatIsMyIp.com is a good speed test
    Business Class service is better the Residential Service
    Static vs. Dynamic IP
    Blocking Ports/ Services -- Make sure your Internet based software will work with your ISP
    SLA (Service Level Agreements) offer a guarantee of service

    To all the "perfect" guys that comment here about the mistake on the board (1 bit = 8 bytes) let me break it down to you. If you've watched the video and listened to it carefully you'll hear that he actually says 1 byte = 8 bits, he just made a mistake while writing it, which it can happen to anybody. Also if you've read the description bar you would have noticed that the mistake was pointed out and it has been corrected. So out of 1 hour lecture he makes a single mistake, which he actually corrects it and you just complain about it instead of thanking this man for the knowledge that he shares with us FOR FREE!

      he made a serious mistake apart from the bit/byte thing that anyone can make.....he does not know what sychronous and asychronous is....which is a thing than you learn in the first class of any computer science/networking/telecomunications course....

    Mr. Eli,
    I wanted to take the time to say thank you for being such an awesome guy and providing these educational videos for free. I myself am an IT Administrator by profession, I am not very great with networking but I am great with Windows administration and desktop support and know basic networking. I've been watching your networking videos lately and the terminology and depth you go into explaining different concepts and really making sure you drive the point home is great. Thank you so much for providing this FOR FREE! The world needs more people like you, you make my life so much better by doing this great service.
    I'm so glad I found your channel and website, it's worth so much and if I ever have extra money (hopefully the education I gain here will help with that) I promise I will donate to you to help you keep pumping out these awesome videos!
    Sincerely,
    Dan.

    **Basics**
    (Internet == Cloud)
    2:20 1 byte = 8 bits
    units of information.
    4:40 sync vs async
    download = upload -> sync connection. d!=u is asynchronous.
    5:40 LATENCY = TIME
    time for a packet to reach the other end.
    Good: L < 30ms. (satellite is >600ms)
    www.whatismyip.com/internet-speed-test/
    9:00 contract plan
    10:40 static vs dynamic ip
    router has 2 ips.
    you need static for a server. *Ask for it to ISP.*
    14:00 port-service.
    each service use different default port. ex. 80 (web).
    16:00 Service Level Agreement.
    For business you can pay for a written contract.
    **Broadband technologies**
    To carry data from ISP to your modem.
    26:00 T1
    Was good. Old. Expensive.
    Can be used for phone or internet.
    33:30 Carrier Ethernet
    Uses Ethernet Broadband Technology to connect ISP to you.
    35:20 P2P
    Point to Point. Wireless but positional/directional. They put an antenna in your house.
    Sends wireless data to ISP antenna. Move antenna, lose internet/cloud connection.
    39:40 LTE
    Wireless internet/cloud connection for mobile _devices_
    1.5 MB/s speed. Enjoy internet everywhere.
    Like a wap, with no cabling.
    Uses cellular antennas.
    45:00 Digital Subscriber Line, DSL.
    Technology offered by Line-Telephone companies.
    Still up nowadays. Good: you don't share bandwidth with neighbors.
    No need of new infrastructure.
    52:00 Cable
    Share bandwidth with ppl on the same cable line.
    No need of new infrastructure.
    56:30 Fiber Optic Service (FiOS)
    Need expensive new infrastructure.
    59:00 Satellite
    Very high latency (>500ms). Speed is fine.
    Elon Musk is building Starlink.

I have watched many of your videos and I know a lot. Tonight. I am studying proxy servers and broadband technologies. I downloaded the two videos. Great work. Keep sharing your knowledge. People benefit from your work. I truly appreciate your hard work and knowledge you have. Many people do not have good knowledge. You are an expert. Keep good work. Upload many videos, please. I learnt many things by watching your nice videos. Hats off to you, Eli.

They are want to push fiber to individual homes. You'll get a mini node in your house, and the speeds will be insane to put it mildly. Exciting times ahead.

    If Verizon (56:18) didn't force you to use their crappy equipment and just gave you an ethernet jack at their ONT that I could run a CAT 7 cable from to my router, I'd jump on it in a nanosecond! But for now, I'm load balancing TWC and Comcast into my router to get decent speeds and 99.99999...% reliability.
    P.S. I love your tutorial videos, Eli. I realize the older ones are a bit dated, as people in the comments below are complaining about, but you've uploaded a great many videos over the years and I can understand that keeping them all up-to-date would be nigh impossible. So cheers! :-)
