Just Exploring the Different Types of Area Networks

[a.brin]

Just wondering how do members here see the evolution of network infrastructure in cities and large organizations? Have any of you ever worked with a hybrid network that combines LAN, MAN, or WAN? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences!

Due to continuing advances with things like Internet of Things, metaverses and AI assistents, I'm sure networks will become even more complex, especially wifi networking.

You're absolutely right! As technologies like IoT, the metaverse, and AI assistants continue to evolve, the demands on networks, especially Wi-Fi, will only increase. These technologies rely on seamless, high-performance connectivity, and the network infrastructure will need to keep pace.

Thanks V Much!  I just think it's amazing how far tech people have gone with computer networking, and I'm sure there will be even more break-throughs in years to come.

Yeah great topic to bring up!  Without computer networks there wouldn't be the net or nothing.  I can only see how they'll get even more complex and more essential.

Complex is the word  Imagine how long it would take already for some computer to map all the Internet nodes and cabling going accross the oceans, seas, overland plus all the 3g, 4g, and 5g wifi masts!  Would take forever as it is!
