Network Speed

Define 'bandwidth' anhd 'latency'

Explain how they affect network performance

Use bits per second to describe network speed

Construct arithmetic expressions describing network transmissions

Define ‘bandwidth’ and ‘latency’

Use bits per second to describe network speed

Construct expressions to calculate transmission times

Compare LANs and WLANs
