Global Internet adoption and devices and connection
Internet users
Nearly two-thirds of the global population will
have Internet access by 2023. There will be 5.3
billion total Internet users (66 percent of
global population) by 2023, up from 3.9 billion
(51 percent of global population) in 2018.
The services and protocols specified in IEEE 802 map to the lower two layers (data link and physical) of
the seven-layer OSI networking reference model. IEEE 802 divides the OSI data link layer into two sub-
layers: logical link control (LLC) and medium access control (MAC), as follows:
802.2 : LLC
802.3 : Ethernet (Based on CSMA/CD)
802.5 : Token Ring
802.11 : Wireless LAN (Based on CSMA/CA), Half Duplex
What is Wi-Fi?
In a general sense, Wi-Fi refers to the wireless
LAN technologies that utilize the IEEE 802.11
standards for communications. Wi-Fi
products use radio waves to transmit data
from a client device to either an access point,
which includes a router, and the router
completes a connection to other devices on
the LAN, WAN or the internet.
