1) I think you need detailed information on LAN card or better Network Interface card:-

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_card

2) RJ45 -> Short for Registered Jack-45, an eight-wire connector used commonly to connect computers (through LAN cards) onto a local-area networks (LAN), especially Ethernets. RJ-45 connectors look similar to the ubiquitous RJ-11 connectors used for connecting telephone equipment, but they are somewhat wider.

3) UTP stands for 'unshielded twisted pair'. A thin-diameter wire commonly used for telephone and network cabling. The wires are twisted around each other to minimize interference from other twisted pairs in the cable.

3) DNS (Domain name service), is the service which translates between Internet names and Internet addresses.

Internet names are the names which we use to refer to hosts on the Internet, such as www.tech-faq.com and www.freebsd.org.

Internet addresses are the numbers which routers use to move traffic across the Internet, such as 216.17.138.115 and 216.136.204.117.

4) Short for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. In some systems, the device's IP address can even change while it is still connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP addresses.
