Corrigé de l’EPSO C: A browser

Explication. A browser is the program you use to open web pages. A modem is a piece of hardware that connects you to your provider. "Explorer" is a trap: Internet Explorer was a browser, but the word on its own names nothing.

Corrigé de l’EPSO A: Using a rule

Corrigé de l’EPSO D: To protect a computer from unwanted communication

DS-05

  1. ABluetooth Low Energy
  2. B2g, 3g, 4g, 5g

Afficher la réponse

Corrigé de l’EPSO B: 2g, 3g, 4g, 5g

Explication. Away from Wi-Fi, a phone reaches the internet over the mobile network, which is what 2G to 5G are. Bluetooth Low Energy links nearby devices, such as a watch, and cloud computing and P2P are ways of using a connection, not ways of getting one.
