2. Describe, by device, how information from your computers keyboard at home gets out to the
Internet. Specifically, briefly describe each device and its function.
Data input from the keyboard is transferred to the application (i.e. Chrome, Outlook, etc.) in bits. It then
goes through a switch, which the computer is connected to either physically or wirelessly, and is pushed
through the firewall, which protects your computer from hackers. After it goes through the firewall, it is
sent to the router, where the data exits your personal network. The router then sends the data to the
modem, which then sends the data out to the Internet.
3. Go to speedtest.net and test your Internet connection speed. Report that on your assignment.
