Review Questions:
1.Amount of Data/ Time to Download = Your Internet Connection Speed

2.Internet traffic.
The server speed of the site you're visiting.
Your computer's hardware and software configuration.
Traffic on your home network.
3.The Internet is a global network, basically a vast grouping of computers transferring
data to one another. Connection speeds will vary depending on many conditions such
as the time of day and the amount of congestion on the Internet in general. When you
request a Web page from a server on the Internet, both the request and the resulting
page travel over a series of links that help comprise the Internet. Points between links
are often referred to as "hops." So depending on the number of people connecting to
our servers, the number of "hops" taken to get to our site, the quality of the connections
between each hop to this site and various other factors, your Internet connection speed
will always vary.
