What do we call a network whose elements may be separated by some distance ?
It is the relation between the two clients (computers) along with the means of communication between them that decides the nomenclature such as Intranet or Internet etc.
A company's computers located in different branches scattered all over India and connect to central server over the world wide web (WWW) is called Intranet. Computers belonging to a college may connect to the single server within the campus over captive network of wires is also an Intranet. On the other side, two computers may be situated in the same room but interact through WWW is an Internet.
The point you raised is intranet not internet
Thanks a lot for this help...
Tow or more computers connected to each other for sharing files in one of the computer through local area network (LAN) card is also another example for networking. Serial and BUS are the methods
