We use the Internet for almost all of our work and leisure activities, but few of us have thought about what actually connects the smartphone, tablet or PC to the rest of the world. In this session we'll discuss how the Internet connects us over the air, fiber, copper, coax, even through thousands of miles of space, and discuss FiOS, DSL, LTE and other access networks. We'll also look at the undersea cables that connects continents together.
