In fact, the Internet can be seen as a virtual network like a spider's web. When you want to access data in this networked world, you must have a connection point in this virtual world, just like how your home needs someone to set up cable TV. You might ask, "Why don't I need to apply for an ISP when I go online at the company? I can just turn on the computer and go online." Now let's look at several scenarios of going online: Let's assume there are two people, Wang Xiaoming and Li Datong (these two are often used in elementary school textbooks). Xiaoming spends most of his time online at the company, while Datong's company is not yet connected to the Internet, but he often hears Xiaoming talk about how interesting the Internet is, which sparks his interest in going online.

So, when you want to go online at home, you need to prepare a few things. First is the modem, which mainly converts digital signals into analog signals because computers accept digital signals, while phone lines transmit analog signals. Second is, of course, the phone line. Third is to apply for an ISP account. The main function of an ISP is to bridge the connection between your home computer and the Internet. So, you'll find that an ISP company is actually on the dedicated line of the Internet, and your computer at home is connected to the ISP's computer via the phone line. When the phone is connected, the ISP will randomly assign you an IP address for you to surf the Internet.
