It works by using a packet routing network that follows Internet Protocol (IP) and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>TCP and IP work together to ensure that data transmission across the internet is consistent and reliable, no matter which device you\u2019re using or where you\u2019re using it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When data is transferred over the internet, it\u2019s delivered in messages and packets. Data sent over the internet is called a message, but before messages get sent, they\u2019re broken up into tinier parts called packets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>These messages and packets travel from one source to the next using Internet Protocol (IP) and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). IP is a system of rules that govern how information is sent from one computer to another computer over an internet connection.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Using a numerical address (IP Address) the IP system receives further instructions on how the data should be transferred.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) works with IP to ensure transfer of data is dependable and reliable. This helps to make sure that no packets are lost, packets are reassembled in proper sequence, and there\u2019s no delay negatively affecting the data quality.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To revise more about the web competent of the Internet follow the link to the <a href=\"https:\/\/mydpn.net\/moodle\/pluginfile.php\/17225\/mod_resource\/content\/1\/How%20the%20Internet%20Works.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Moodle PDF &#8211; How the Internet works<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To learn more about how the Internet works and the appropriate terms &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dpnwordpress.org\/principles-of-coding\/index.php\/glossary-coding\/\">use the glossary for definitions and language<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LO4.
