How does a computer connect to a website

[Mr Self Destruct]

I was wonder if any CS/CIS majors or those already in the field involving local area networks, know a site that summarizes the whole process? I'm looking for something detailed but short. Like if you need a NIC card,a modem, the whole nine yards.

Thanks

Both the PC Magazine and PC World websites have excellent articles about how to set up LANS. They cover wired and wireless networks.

It's good, if a bit out of date.

Also visit the LANS FAQ here:
