1: The internet is indeed being used by a wide range of services. Its dependency has increased leaps and bounds over the last few decades. Along with that there has also been a steep rise in increase of bandwidth as the internet user population is also increasing exponentially.

When designing a network, wether it is a home network or a large scale network, try to understand your requirements first. Based on which you must be choosing the necessary hardware that works best within networks capability.

2: My perception and knowledge of WAN technology and how it can have such a huge impact in an organization has definitely changed some for sure. Proper utilization of a WAN can improve a network drastically while allowing members within the organization to spend time elsewhere being more efficient. Bad utilization of a WAN can lead to trouble shooting constantly and even security breaches inside the network causing a wide array of problems. It also comes down to what equipment your using, what applications your using and how you use them. It's great to have a firewall, router, switch, and other networking equipment but unless they are properly configured you won't see a lot of great results out of them (especially the firewall).

3: How has your perception of WAN technology changed as a result of what you have studied in this course?

5: Linear equations have been the most useful to me because it helped me decide what amount of stuff I can have with the amount of money I currently have.
