so true....

I agree. The best explanations are from the early days.

LOL

Waow

so simple to understand

ok

i’m usually more inclined to watch something if it’s old since it seems that newer videos are unnecessarily bloated up because of modern standards or something

Hi, how's your progress so far?

i get your point but i am just gonna be that guy and say the internet never changed

Completely agree

When ppl couldnt rely on fancy graphics back then, they rely on being a great teacher! When ppl overuse fancy graphics today, they forget how to teach!

You find what you're looking after.

I completely agree, it's so fascinating

lol

Lol (?) :D

Aaron does the internet travel under water using deep sea cables but does it also travel under ground on land or does it travel on electrical telephone wire? The deep sea under water caper or fiber optic cable have routers attached to them that guid the packet to the right IP and server?

Thank you Aaron!!!!!!!!!!!

Or people who actually know some shit about how computer networks and Internet work. Like I counted at least 3 or 4 mistakes: 1. The Internet is NOT a bus topology (long single thick line). God have mercy on us if that was the case because we'd need forever to reach anything since our data would have to travel across millions of routers. 2. A server is NOT defined by whether or not it's connected to the Internet directly, just like a PC is NOT defined by being connected to the Internet indirectly. Server is defined by its OS version, like in case of Windows, Linux etc. (e.g. Windows Server 2016 or Ubuntu Server). Or by its role in the computer network (like a DHCP or DNS or web server). 3. aol.com is NOT an ISP. AOL is perhaps. aol.com is a DNS name (not even a web server name unless it's redirected to it). But I get it it was probably a simplification. 4. IT IS NOT THE CASE THAT EVERY ROUTER THAT FORWARDS A DATA PACKET ADDS (OR REMOVES) A LAYER THE WAY IT WAS PRESENTED HERE! Each and every data packet sent by a PC or a server consists of seven layers (aka OSI model). Yes, layers are being removed and added again in order to access some information. Like routers will remove layers 1-3 (called decapsulation) in order to access layer 3 data which includes the target IP address, among other things. But they will then add back layers 3, 2 and 1 (in this order, it's called encapsulation). Generally speaking a data packet that doesn't consist of 7 layers is invalid (unless we're talking about some specific network protocols like ICMP but it's not a case). And they claim it would be a correct one. I get it, ok, this is simplified for sake of people who don't know a thing about computer networking or IT in general. But being simplified does not mean it can be simply incorrect and misleading. I'm sure the way the actual Internet actually works (a huge number of autonomous systems owned but different companies connected using BGP protocol) can be explained in a few minutes video and is definitely more interesting than this shit.

meh there is a lot of stuff missing on this. and things where not described correctly

herpy derpy Yes, a lot of things were missing, there's a reason why the Internet is a work of science, it's REALLY complex. However, this is the explanation you might consider giving to a kid that just want basic understanding until he/she is old enough to learn more.

I disagree, if you really had no idea of how the internet works (which seems to be the target audience of this video) this video would lead you to believe that there is a single connection that "is" the internet and that is grossly incorrect. The internet is a web (hence world wide web or www) of networks that are all inter-connected (internet). To say that the internet is a "wire buried underground" is tantamount to saying that all of the United States water comes from a single pipe. Not to mention that he completely failed to discuss the different protocol layers in the OSI model that really define how the internet works. The video is very misleading and actually leaves its viewers not only not understanding how the internet works but actually thinking it works in a way that it doesn't.

Damnatis Malus would you be able to recommend something you'd consider acceptable for complete beginners? thanks

Buck Navich check out kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n5ufmJlk1bXMfH0.html it's a very basic level but much more informative and accurate than this video.

Hi Aaron! I agree with tvu111974. This is the best explanation of the internet I've heard. You really cleared up a lot of confusion. Thanks!

I just finished a Network Communications class and this video does a great job summing up what the internet is! It could've went into more depth of TCP and UDP but I'm glad it didn't. Short, simple, and sweet.

Haha Me too!

log yourself out

What is the device which sends the packets to the servers? The rooters

Omg its funny cus its dumb

Stupid, but you did get a grin out of me

Oh dammit, a good one though, cringy but good.

+Bryan P Poor Aunt Ruth, so in the 'dark' out there.

+Bryan P LOL, you're actually right. when I was a kid there was this old lady who lived down the street. We'd knock on her back door and say "Aunt Ruth can we have some candy?" and she always gave us twizzlers. I don't think Ruth was her real name

+darkpearl88 ur soo ruthless

Why are old men called old man Jenkins.

This would mean there's always a Ruth in a family with multiple girls and she is single and or doesn't have kids...lol

me too!

Akash Menon You can't, the Internet is ruthless and has no soul.

+Akash Menon hahaha

+Shane Robinson YOU'RE describing the non human part of the Internet . because most internet people are quite civil . many times i've had arguments in comments when months later my opposition debater responds back to me to clarify the topic or give in , or to enlighten some more . If we can transmit in light speed , there's still a social code , a reason for being here . If we can't stay within social code , the internet would be a disaster . i'm quite proud of getting the opportunity of actually seeing it , and of the marvelous work of it's creators and technicians . remember I had to play with rabbit ears to get one more black and white channel , because we only had one , the CBC . Bravo fellow humans , let's go where nobody has gone before .

World Church ISPs still pay other ISPs in most cases (look up peering agreements). The wire analogy really breaks down really quickly. In reality it's a bunch of routers reading the IP address and deciding whether to send the packet to a device (computer or router) on the network segment it manages or to a higher layer router. Eventually (after only a few hops) the highest layer router gets it and uses routing tables (generated via BGP) to send it to another ISP. There is no magical internet, it's just a bunch of networks running the Internet Protocol which decided to peer (connect) with one another out of convenience. Who runs the individual networks? Companies, ISPs, Universities, Governments, and other institutions large enough to make a peering agreement worthwhile.

+Ano Nymous South Park. It was a big machine which made sense, thus I searched online to confirm and found this lol

Before I started taking classes in cybersecurity my idea of the internet was a "big box" as well. But in reality you're just accessing a company or organization's physical servers that are held in a building.

TurtleShroom Literally RAID, not unlike Linux distros all over the world😎

Actually, from what I know, each time a packet arrived on a router, it will alter the packet (especially for its MAC Address, this will be changed to the next router's MAC Address). CMIIW, I'm still learning
