Mind blowing speed RT to Chile at around 62,000 miles per second – about 1/3 the speed of light.

Summary 1101101 Acknowledge Client Server
Self-study questions Which organization owns the host with the IP address 74.125.0.0 ? Ping www.microsoft.comfrom two places, perhaps school and your home. Are the ping times the same? Explain the differences? If you measure ping time between two hosts at different times, will it always be the same? Explain your answer. Data travels very fast across the Internet, but the rate is less than the speed of light. What things slow it down? I pinged Google.com from my home and from my office. The results showed two different destination IP addresses. Can you explain that? Which do you like better, the command-line ping program that comes with Windows or the window-based program that I wrote? Why? Give at least one advantage for each.
