1.Describe the series of connections that would be made, equipment and protocol changes, if you connected your laptop to a wireless hotspot and opened your email program and sent an email to someone. Think of all the layers and the round trip the information will likely make.

2.How are signals clocked and how does that affect data transmission? What does it mean when a signal is self-clocking? How does baud rate differ from bits per second? Explain the relationship between frequency and Baud Rate.

3.The addition of control information to a packet as it moves through the layers is called encapsulation. Provide a brief overview of the process as requested pieces of data (packets) undergoes as it is sent over the Internet. What are the sizes of the packets? What is the likelihood that a message sent over the Internet will go through at least 1 router? Why?

4.Provide the results of these calculations

What is the frequency, in Hertz, of a signal that repeats 60,000 times within one minute? What is its period (the length of one complete cycle)?

What is the bandwidth of a signal composed of frequencies from 60 Hz to 600 Hz?
