HOW DOES THE INTERNET WORKS?

All the country is connected by the internet. you may think that the internet works by satellite, network but it not. The Internet is work by an Optical fiber cable. Our Mobile phone doesn’t have cable then it takes the signal from the tower and that tower is connected to optical fiber cable.

HOW THE INTERNET COME TO YOU?

Internet coming to your home before that it will pass through tier company. That company is laid down the optical fiber cable or submarine cable inside the sea all over the world. That will connect the main city of that country only.

This Optical Fibre is having a thickness equal to human hair having a speed up to 100 Gbps in a single wire. This cable laid down by that company is called Tier 1. In India Tier 1 company is TATA Communication. This Company laid down all the wire by his investment. In India landing point of the cable is at Mumbai, Cochin, Trivendrum, Tuticorine, Puducherry, Chennai, at that place internet is distributed to Tier 2. you can check your country landing point by submarine cable map.

After Laid down of cable Tier 1 network get the internet free of cost. Only required to do Maintenance of that cable when it is broken down in the sea by a shark, ship or life expired. On 13 January 2008 wire broken in Egypt so 70% of the internet is shut down.

Tier 2 Network will take the internet from tier 1 by pay it and set up in full country by a different tower. Tier 3 like Hathway, tikona will buy data from tier 2 also by paying it.

WHY WE GET LESS OR MORE SPEED OF INTERNET?

Sometimes we face that the internet is running slow or fast in a day or night. It’s because of in some area high rush of people use the internet simultaneously that time tower divides the speed among that users as per bandwidth of tower. So we feel that at night time we get higher speed and daytime get a lower speed.

In the second case when we search “google.com” from India that time server gets that data from the USA so it takes some time. if you search local area website like “www.cse247.com” than your server does not go outside your country and you get the high speed of surfing.

To make data privacy server must not connect with another country tier 1. Like India doesn’t want to share the data of aadhar card with other countries.
