'Going online' requires connecting your computer to the national Internet infrastructure. The process begins by establishing a link to your Internet Service Provider (ISP) whether through a telephone line, cable or wireless connection. The ISP connects you to the national infrastructure which is regulated and in some countries governed by the ministry of telecommunications. Using one (or one of several) Internet exchange points in your country, the connection is routed to the global Internet.
