Yes there is. You have to buy a cable that hooks up to your computer and the tv. Teachers at my school do it all the time.

Lan, \nA local area network (LAN) is a computer network covering a \nlocal area, like a home, office, or group of buildings. Current LANs are most likely to be based on switched IEEE 802.3 Ethernet, or on Wi-Fi technology running at 10, 100 or 1,000 Mbit.\nA wide area network or WAN is a computer network covering a broad geographical area. Contrast with personal area networks (PANs), metropolitan area networks (MANs) or local area networks (LANs) that are usually limited to a room, building or campus. The largest and most well-known example of a WAN is the Internet.\n\nWAN,\n\nWANs are used to connect local area networks (LANs) together, so that users and computers in one location can communicate with users and computers in other locations. Many WANs are built for one particular organization and are private. Others, built by Internet service providers, provide connections from an organization's LAN to the Internet. WANs are most often built using leased lines. At each end of the leased line, a router connects to the LAN on one side and a hub within the WAN on the other. Leased lines can be very expensive. Instead of using leased lines, WANs can also be built using less costly circuit switching or packet switching methods. Network protocols including TCP deliver transport and addressing functions. Protocols including Packet over SONET, MPLS, ATM and Frame relay are often used by service providers to deliver the links that are used in WANs. X.25 was an important early WAN protocol, and is often considered to be the "grandfather" of Frame Relay as many of the underlying protocols and functions of X.25 are still in use today (with upgrades) by Frame Relay.

Umm...if computers weren't meant to be used with televisions, then why would they make video cards with TV-Out connections and have developed Media Center to be more easily integrated with you Home Theater System?  How do people upload their home movies to the internet from VHS and watch ripped backups of DVDs, etc. on their television directly from their hard drive?   DUH\n\nI apologize for the irrelevance to the question.

It is not different.  It is DSL or Cable.  Unless it is a T1, 2, or 3 line.\nHigh speed internet service is so called because once everybody had dial-up, top speed 56kbs.

Internet = Wide Area Network (WAN)\nEthernet = Local Area Network (LAN)\n\nEthernet is used in homes, offices, schools or any network that is in a limited area. When many Ethernet networks are connected together, they form the Internet. However, Ethernet networks can function without connecting to the Internet.

A bridge converts one type of cable into another (ie. a phone line into a ethernet cable). Whereas a switch is the same cable.

Q:Which one creates more light - series or parallel circuits?Why?\nA: Depending on the amount of bulbs there are. If you're having one bulb in a parallel and series, the series would shine brighter (I think) because series circuit is more direct. \n\nQ:Which type of circuit - series or parallel - are used in homes? Why?\nA: Both, becuase they both have their disadvanteges and advanteges. \n\nQ: What determines the amount of resistance in a conductor (wire) and how does that affect the flow of electricity? \nA: The thinner and longer the wire, the less resistance hence the electrical current is able to flow and be conducted\n\nQ: Conductors of electricity?\nA: Usually materials of metal\n\nQ: Insulators of electricity?\nA: Usually materials of plastic and wood as well as rubber.\n\nQ:How is lightning electricity?\nA: Lightning is negatively charged and has a high voltage. Lightning is created due to friction of ice crystals and particles in clouds. \n____________________________________________\nHope this helps!!! :) :) :)

what is the difference between the 10/100 ethernet card and the 10/100/1000 ethernet card? \n\n... the difference is the speed the cards are capable of - the 10/100 is capable of both 10 and 100 Mbps, and the 10/100/1000 can also transmit at 1000Mbps\n\n-are the two types replaceable to each other in any computer?\n......That depends on the card - if they are both pci cards going into a pci slot, Yes.  If you are pulling an old ISA card out of an old pc... No.  Further, 10/100/1000 will only tranmit at the highest speed when connected to hardware that also handles the higher speed... Cat5e cable for instance (cat5 only handles 10/100)\n\n-when and where these card are used?\n\n.....the cards are used for network connections and/or connecting to highspeed internet (DSL or cable modems)  They use Ethernet cables to connect to the device.\n\n-what is ment by the numbers 10 , 100 and 1000 in these types?\n.......... previous answer handled this one.

This will be a simplistic answer since I don't work in the phone industry but this is what I know:\n\nFirst, we must assume that we are leaving the newer kinds of phone service out of the equation - I might touch on them later. Anyway, yes, in the traditional phone service setup, all phones are connected by lines & different areas are connected by cables that hold what we could term as super lines...basically a larger collection of lines to allow for more data flow back & forth. The phone service reaches your house through a line actually connected to your house above or below ground. In order to get there, it winds through your neighborhood & connects to a type of juncture box which houses all of the equipment for the area (these are normally short-ish green boxes on the side of the road or look like transformers at the top of telephone poles).\n\nAs for connecting countries themselves, there is/was (not sure if it is still in use but I think it is) something called the TransAtlantic Cable which originally carried the ability for telephone service overseas. Of course, when you make the jump to another continent, you then continue with the lines & cables either above or below ground.\n\nBack in the day, "Ma Bell" (nickname, can't think of the real name right now) & AT&T owned all the lines. At some point, this company was split up into what became known as the "baby Bells" which included, Southern Bell, Pacific Bell, etc. The other early player in the game & in our ability to communicate across the country & overseas, AT&T, is a company you are likely still familiar with today.\n\nI would suggest researching both "AT&T", "Ma Bell" & something like "history of telephone communications" online to get more information as the history of the worldwide telephone service is quite interesting. You'll be amazed at what folks accomplished when all of this was first set up; I certainly am when I look at where we were even when I was a child as opposed to where we are today.\n\nAs for my comment on the newer technologies, those would include broadband (or internet) telephone service - which carries the information over either the DSL or cable connected to your computer - & satellite telephone service. I can't say much to satellite as I've not researched it...

Television receivers were used by most early personal and home computers, connecting composite video to the television set through the use of a modulator. Image quality was reduced by the additional steps of composite_video==>modulator==>TV_tuner==>composite_video, though it reduced costs of adoption by removing the costs of a specialized monitor from the system's price tag. During the era of these early home computers, television sets were almost exclusively CRT-based.

I switched to Cable Internet about a year ago. I used to have Dial-Up and it sucked compared to what I have now! CABLE ROCKS!

You need DSL or cable or some sort of ISP. To connect to LAN you will need to connect your computer to your ISP, usually via ethernet. Normally once you plug the ethernet into your computer, then you can use LAN to connect.\n\nGo to this website: http://www.cablemodemhelp.com/lanconnect.htm\n\nand it will explain it better with pictures =)

Cable is generally but not always faster. Cable users share the medium so overloaded segments can get pretty slow. DSL is dedicated between the user and dslam so other nearby users do not heavily impact the speed.\nAs far as using a router for connecting multiple pc's, it can slow you down but I doubt you will notice it unless both pc's are trying to download bif files at the same time.

Those are called "ferrites".  You can learn more about them from a company called "Fair-rite" (I put their link down below).  A ferrite is really nothing more than a magnet, but one specially tuned depending on the frequency of signal running down the cable, or the current if the cable is a power cable.\n\nElectro magnetic interference (EMI) is all around us, especially with all the electronic devices we have running in the modern home.  EMI flies through the air and, when it contacts something metalic, it "runs along" that metalic line.  In the case of a cable, imagine the clean signal picking up "fuzz" as it runs down the line.  That's pretty much what happens.  A ferrite stops the "fuzz" from getting through to the end of the cable, thus making the signal much cleaner when the end device gets to it.  On a power cord, the ferrite helps prevent too much EMI from leaking out at the end and interfering with the device that the power is for.\n\nI should mention that a ferrite is always "optional" on a line, in other words the cable will work without one.  However, ferrites aren't expensive and they do help with the signal, so most companies will just add one on to the product just in case.

There are lots of different ways to achieve this. The most common connection now is from your PC to a LCD or DHP TV. They have built in HDMI connenctions just like a computer monitor. You can also use a DVI connection. If your TV has neither of these connections then your best bet is to forget the idea of hooking your PC to your TV because you are not going to get the results you really want.
