Network ConnectionsNetwork Connections Most networks share a single communication lineMost networks share a single communication line
Adding a new computer to the network is relatively Adding a new computer to the network is relatively easyeasy
Network traffic must taketurns using the line, whichintroduces delays
Often information is brokendown in parts, called packets,which are sent to the receivingmachine and then reassembled
