ISP (Internet Service Provider): Provides internet connectivity. - Super ISPs: Larger ISPs with significant control over internet infrastructure. - Data Security: Data transmitted over networks is scanned for threats and encrypted to protect against hacking. - RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks): A method for storing data across multiple disks to ensure redundancy and performance.

Frame Structure: Data is transmitted in chunks called frames, with sizes ranging from 64 bytes to 1518 bytes. Padding is added if necessary to meet the minimum size. - EMI and RFI: Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference can disrupt network communication.
