Hi Richard,
I appreciate your work on explaining the fundamentals to the beginners. I have gone through quite a number of articles and now I have an idea of the dataflow.

However, I still feel that there are some missing pieces of information that needs to be assembled in order to have a complete picture. I would further appreciate your effort if you can explain me the actual data flow, handshake & data control as a sequence of events when a user initiates a web page request.

What i meant is that I did have an understanding in general, but specific details of the the actual sequence of actions that take place is not covered by anybody on the internet and I would love to read them.

If you have any specific documents & pictures, I would request you to send them to me. Again, I like to thank you for presenting this material for all our readers.

Thanks Richard for your tutorial,
I am still unsure as to what the MAC is for, are you saying that that it is used for the purpose of initialy corresponding with the ISP so as to get IP addresses from the DNS..?
