Typing google.com triggers DNS recursion, glue records and CNAME tricks, visible with Wireshark and Resolve-DnsName; DNS can be a distributed key‑value store and can return multiple A records for geo load balancing. Use PowerShell tools like Get-NetRoute and Test-NetConnection to add routes, bind VPNs and avoid hosts-file traps. ARP/neighbor tables reveal device MAC vendors. Large surprises: routers using CAM chips (300M searches/sec, 2.5Mb per chip, ~$300), office Wi‑Fi sees 756–4,500 passerby devices, TCP’s 3/6/12s retransmits cause 21s stalls; scripted VPN route fixes work.
