Practice Questions
(Panko & Panko, 2013)
1. What is the comparative signal evaluator that checks the strength of a particular
electric pulse involving network access points? Answer: RSSI(relative signal strength
indicator)
2. What is the difference between BSSID(Basic Service Set ID) and SSID(Service Set
ID)? Answer: BSSID is a MAC address of a particular access point. SSID is the network
name.
3. What is the differentiation between access points and access links? Answer: Access
points are the source and destination in a network. While access links are like the
highways on a computer network.
4. What are some examples of Web 2.0 applications? Answer: Twitch, YouTube, and

Additionally, the devices can share documents.
6. What is the official measurement of computer network speeds? Answer: bps(bits per
second)
7. What is 30 Mbps converted to Kbps? Answer: 30,000 Kbps
8. With the throughput rate speed at 100 Kbps, how long will it take to download an
hour-long HDTV video? Answer: 4 days
9. Involving computer networks, what are packets? Answer: Packets are data messages
that go from point to point on the Internet.
10. What is a characteristic of data transmission that incorporates short traffic bursts
with long silences afterwards? Answer: bursty
11. What is the process of reducing cost by having packets share circuit lines to reach
