∙ 11y agoThis is referring to a computer network that connects multiple hosts together. It transmits data within the host or network.
The network adapters. They are in turn powered by the computers they are attached to. Each card transmits a voltage signal. That is why the cords can only be so long. The wireless cards are powered by the computer, but they broadcast and receive radio waves.
No, Wi-Fi adapter resides inside a computer's housing, whether it is a laptop casing or a desktop tower. It has a port for a wire or an antenna that transmits data to and from the computer and from to other computers on the same network. But A Wi - Fi dongle is a network adapter that plugs into a computer's USB port. It transmits data wireless between the computer and other computers on the network. A software installation may be required the first time a dongle is used on a computer, but the computer should recognize the dongle every time it is subsequently plugged in. networkrepairs.ca
Usually "network computer" refers to a computer whose primary function is to access the network and can't do much else on its own. Sometimes it is a dumb terminal with no processing power of its own, but more often it does have processing capabilities, but still less than a personal or business computer. Network computers rarely exist outside large corporate networks, where they are generally assigned to very low-level employees with minimal computing needs.

Network
In computer hardware, NIC typically stands for a network interface card, commonly also called the network card.While a typical NIC may include some processing capability, this is normally very limited and doesn't qualify the NIC as a general purpose processing device.
The network window displays a list of computers in the workgroup of the computer. Workgroups offer easy access to share files and printers, etc between computers on a local network. It is most commonly used in an office setting.
For a mainframe with terminals, data processing takes place on the mainframe computer only as the terminals are 'dumb'. Conversely, in a network of computers, each computer has its own processor.
