Types of Network 

======================================

PAN (Personal Area Network): A network covering a very small area, usually a small room. The best known wireless PAN network technology is Bluetooth.

LAN (Local Area Network): It covers the Local area. This usually includes a local office and they're also pretty common in homes now, thanks to the spread of Wi-Fi. 

Like  offices.

MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) :A metropolitan area network (MAN) is similar to a local area network (LAN) but spans an entire city or campus. MANs are formed by connecting multiple LANs. Thus, MANs are larger than LANs but smaller than wide area networks (WAN). 

Delhi as a whole can be considered as MAN. 

WAN (Wide Area Network) : A network that covers an area wider than a LAN.Distances can range from a network connecting multiple buildings on a corporate or college campus to satellite links connecting offices in different countries.

Our Intenet the articles or browsing we do is a WAN based network.
