    Which of the following could be an IP address?

    • A.

      192.168.1.1

    • B.

    Correct Answer
    A. 192.168.1.1
    Explanation
    The given answer, 192.168.1.1, could be an IP address because it follows the standard format of an IP address which consists of four sets of numbers separated by periods. Each set can range from 0 to 255, making it a valid IP address. The other options, 192:168:1:1 and 192,168,1,1, do not follow the correct format for an IP address, so they cannot be valid IP addresses. Therefore, the correct answer is 192.168.1.1.

    Rate this question:

  • 23. 

    Which does not describe a public network:

    • A.

      The devices on the network are "visible" to devices outside the network

    • B.

      Local Area Network

    Correct Answer
    B. Local Area Network
    Explanation
    Option C, "Local Area Network," does not describe a public network. A Local Area Network (LAN) typically refers to a network that is limited to a small geographic area, such as a home, office, or campus. It is not inherently public, as it is usually privately owned and operated by an organization or individual for their own use. Public networks, on the other hand, are accessible to devices outside the network, and they can include Wide Area Networks (WANs) as well as the internet. Therefore, option C does not fit the description of a public network.

    Rate this question:

  • 24. 

    What is the first step you should take when troubleshooting a computer that won't start?

      Update all software drivers.

    Correct Answer
    B. Check if the computer is plugged in and the power switch is on.
    Explanation
    When a computer does not start, the initial step in troubleshooting should involve checking the most basic potential issues before moving to more complex diagnostics. This includes ensuring that the computer is properly plugged into a power source and that the power switch is turned on. This step helps to rule out any simple power supply issues that might be preventing the computer from starting.

    Rate this question:

    A required device used to connect to an ISP Network.

    • A.

      Switch

    • B.

      Router

    • C.

      Modem

    • D.

      Hub

    Correct Answer
    C. Modem
    Explanation
    A modem is the correct answer because it is a device that is used to connect to an ISP network. A modem converts the digital signals from a computer into analog signals that can be transmitted over telephone lines or cable lines, allowing the computer to access the internet through the ISP network. Switches, routers, and hubs are networking devices that are used to connect multiple devices within a local network, but they are not specifically used to connect to an ISP network.

    • C.

      Could also be a modem

    • D.

      All describes Wireless Access Point

    Correct Answer
    C. Could also be a modem
    Explanation
    A wireless access point is a device that allows wired communication devices to connect to a wireless network using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or related standards. It usually connects to a router. However, it cannot be a modem as modems are used for different purposes, such as converting analog signals to digital signals for internet connectivity. Therefore, the statement "Could also be a modem" does not describe a wireless access point.

      A wired connection using a Coaxial cable

    • D.

      A two-way adapter

    Correct Answer
    A. A wireless connection using radio waves
    Explanation
    The correct answer is A, a wireless connection using radio waves. This is because WLAN stands for Wireless Local Area Network, and it uses radio waves to connect devices to the internet or to other devices within a specific area. This type of connection allows for flexibility and mobility as it does not require physical cables to connect devices.

    A television system that has more than the usual number of lines per frame so its pictures show more detail:

    • A.

      SDTV

    • B.

      HDTV

    • C.

      EDTV

    • D.

      CCTV

    Correct Answer
    B. HDTV
    Explanation
    HDTV stands for High Definition Television, which is a television system that has more than the usual number of lines per frame. This allows for a higher resolution and more detailed pictures compared to standard definition television (SDTV) or enhanced definition television (EDTV). HDTV provides a clearer and sharper image quality, making it the preferred choice for high-quality viewing experiences. CCTV, on the other hand, stands for Closed-Circuit Television and refers to a surveillance system rather than a television system.

    Which of the following can not be used to connect a cable box to a television?

    • A.

      Coaxial Cable

    • B.

      RCA Cable

    • C.

      RJ45 Cable

    • D.

      Both A and B

    Correct Answer
    C. RJ45 Cable
    Explanation
    The RJ-45 cable cannot be used to connect a cable box to a television. RJ-45 cables are typically used for Ethernet connections, while coaxial and RCA cables are commonly used for audio and video connections. Therefore, the RJ-45 cable is not compatible with connecting a cable box to a television.
