Virtual Private Networks allow users working from home or on the road to connect in a secure fashion to a remote corporate server via the Internet (or other public framework). From the user’s perspective, the VPN is a point-to-point connection between the user’s computer and a corporate server. We does not provide support for installing or troubleshooting VPNs.

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a security protocol for the Internet that establishes an encrypted link between a web server and browser to help ensure privacy. An SSL connection always begins with a “handshake,” which fulfills any authentication requirements needed for the connection between server and browser. Afterward, SSL’s job is to encrypt and decrypt any and all information being shared between the server and client. For instance, this is the technology used when you make a purchase over the Internet; it ensures that your personal information (such as address, Social Security Number, credit or debit card information, etc.) cannot be viewed or stored by anyone other than the intended party.

A Proxy Server lies in between your computer and the Internet. When you visit web content through your computer, you connect to your proxy. The proxy then requests the content you’re searching for on your behalf and returns it to you. A proxy is useful for filtering Internet content, connecting to the Internet through firewalls and archiving web pages for quicker retrieval. Jordan European Internet does not support the use of proxy servers, and recommends that you disable proxies through your browser.

A bit is the smallest unit of storage and stores just a 0 or a 1. Internet speed is measured in bits per second and is used to show how much data can be moved from a server through the Internet to your computer every second. Internet speed is expressed as “bits per second” or “megabits per second” (Mbps), or “gigabits per second” (Gbps). One megabit equals 1 million bits, and one gigabit equals 1,000 megabits, or 1 billion bits. Megabit and gigabit are abbreviated with an uppercase “M” and “G” and a lowercase “b,” as in Mb and Gb. Bytes are often used when referring to the size of an electronic file, such as music, photos and videos. One megabyte equals one million bytes. Megabyte is written with an uppercase “M” and an uppercase “B”, as in MB. So, a photo might be 1MB, a song 5MB, and a video 700MB.

IPv6 is the abbreviation for Internet Protocol (IP) version 6. An IPv6 address (e.g. 24da:db8:ac10:fe01:2aa:ff:fe00:56ab) is much longer than an IPv4 address (e.g. 24.128.21.12). It contains a combination of both letters (a through f) and numbers (0 through 9), consists of 32 hexadecimal characters and is 128 bits in length. IPv6 was necessitated by the phenomenal increase in devices accessing the Internet. Because of this increase, the Internet is running out of IPv4 addresses. The solution is for IPv6 to accommodate this increased demand by providing a larger address space.

An IP (Internet Protocol) address is used to uniquely identify every device connected on the Internet, including Internet modems, WiFi modems and wireless routers.

Quality of Service is important for both businesses and consumer alike. Especially if you are using real time applications such as VoIP, VPN, streaming media and remote desktop services. Our unique systems allow us to anticipate your needs and when the occasion arises we can allocate resources to meet a peak demand without effecting other users.

When you transmit data packets over the network, you expect to receive the packets in the same order and with the same timing intervals in which you sent them. Some providers are based on a “best effort” mechanism so your packet arrival timing will be out of sync and longer than it should be. This makes it impossible to run real time services. Jordan European Internet has engineered its network for very low jitter.

Faster Internet speeds will help revolutionize the web in new ways. Imagine chatting with your doctors or teachers via HD video conference, or collaborating on a work or school project with contributors across the globe in real time. Imagine new online billing applications that don’t freeze. Or automatically saving all of your work to the cloud in a blink of an eye — and not having to worry about losing files in a computer crash. Faster speeds mean more possibilities.

To see if you are actually getting high speed internet access. Many broadband companies make claims of speeds up to a certain speed. This means you will probably get less but never more. Jordan European Internet’s 50 megabits download speed is actually that, you will get what you pay for. Test Your Internet Connection Now.

If you press the reset button on your router, it basically wipes the router clean and resets it back to how it was out of the box. Follow the instructions that came with your router or call the router manufacturer directly for assistance. Jordan Internet European can send a technician out to set your devices back online.

No. We do not store any wireless keys, passwords, or IDs. Usually, new routers come with a pre-printed card which has your router name and password printed on it, which is usually stored underneath the router or in some other storage location.

To reset your router to the pre-printed factory default settings, look for the reset button on your router, or consult the manufacturer’s instructions for your device. Follow the instructions that came with your router or call the manufacturer directly for further assistance.

The speed of service you will want depends on what you like to use the internet for, as well as how many devices you intend to have on the internet.

Our FIBERLINK NET 50 service (50 Mbps) is perfect for those to use the internet to check emails, use online services such as banking, and other day-to-day activities. However, if you like to watch videos online (such as Netflix and Hulu), or play games online (such as World of Warcraft) or with gaming systems (X-Box, PS3), we recommend our FIBERLINK 100+ services for those activities.

These speeds are also recommended if you have many devices that will be on the internet at the same time. FIBERLINK 300+ are usually recommended for Commercial use.

Yes. Jordan Internet European protects your confidential information like credit card numbers and sensitive documents through the use of a security protocol. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encrypts your information prior to transmitting it over the Internet so that it cannot be read as it is in transmission from your computer to Jordan Internet European’s.

Yes, it is possible to create a local area network (LAN) and get several PCs connected to the Internet at the same time.

As for connection speeds, when several PCs share the line it is possible for the connection speed at each PC to drop.

Fiber to the home (FTTH) is the delivery of a communications signal over optical fiber from the operator’s switching equipment all the way to a home or business, thereby replacing existing copper infrastructure such as telephone wires or coaxial cable.

Fiber to the home is a relatively new and fast growing method of providing vastly higher bandwidth to consumers and businesses, and thereby enabling more robust video, internet and voice services.​​

Optical fiber is a hair-thin strand of glass, specially designed to trap and transmit light pulses.

The fiber uses light instead of electricity to carry a signal. It is unique because it can carry high bandwidth signals over long distances without signal degradation, and it can provide those signals simultaneously in both directions – upload and download.

Copper media can also carry high bandwidth, but only for a few hundred yards – after which the signal begins to degrade and bandwidth narrows.

Optical fiber has been used in communications networks for more than 35 years, mostly to carry core telecom traffic from city to city or country to country.​​

Connecting homes directly to fiber optic cable enables enormous improvements in the bandwidth that can be provided to consumers, both now and for many more decades of accelerating bandwidth demand.

While cable modems generally provide transmission speeds of anywhere between five and 50 megabits per second on the download (and are generally much slower when uploading), current fiber optic technology can provide two-way transmission speeds of up to 1 gigabit per second, with 10 gig systems now coming to market and even higher bandwidth fiber networks now being developed.

Further, while cable and DSL providers are struggling to squeeze small increments of higher bandwidth out of their technologies, ongoing improvements in fiber optic equipment are constantly increasing available bandwidth without having to change the fiber. That’s why fiber networks are said to be “future proof.”​

Routers are like cars.

All cars have the same basic functions of getting you from point A to point B.

Some cars are small and slow and can only hold one or two people.

Some cars are large and fast and can hold 6-8 people.

Routers are similar to cars. Your internet depends on your router.

Some routers transmit data slow, some transmit it fast.

Some routers can support 1 connected device, some routers can support up to 15 connected devices.

Your internet experience is extremely dependent on the quality of your router.

There are a lot of factors that will affect your Internet speeds.

The computer you are using, its processor, how many programs you have opened at the time you are on the Internet and/or whether your computer has been infected with spyware or viruses–these can all effect your Internet speed.

The overall traffic on the Internet can also effect your Internet speed.

The number of devices sharing the same network as well as potentially faulty external devices, such as routers, can affect performance.
