There are different types of network present in different Books.Like LAN, MAN, PAN, WAN.... etc.. This So Called Network types are teached by college professors. But I am going to show you how actually types of network(LAN WAN) are used practically.

1. LAN

  • Local Area Network
  • If your devices are connected to each other with wire or wireless without connecting to internet then this network is LAN.
  • LAN Network works on Private IP
  • Keep in Mind Network connectivity that involves internet then network become WAN.
  • LAN are high speed and most secure.

2. WAN

  • Wide Area Network
  • If your devices are connected with Internet then network becomes WAN.
  • WAN Network works on Public IP
  • All Internet accessible network are WAN.
  • WAN are slow and less Secure.

  • If you are in Delhi with your device and connected with cables to another device that are in Mumbai then it is not WAN it is LAN because your devices are not connected to Internet.
  • If you and your GF is in the same building and you both chatting with the help of Facebook then it is WAN network.
