Basically what we know as the internet comprises the physical connection and the use of a standard packet switching software, now TCP/IP (which itself didn't sprint up overnight but evolved)). Computers were linked & communicating before TCP/IP.
You could say 1969 when ARPANET connected 4 computers & the first RFC was issued.
You could say 1982 when the them 'Intrenet' was first used, you caould say 1983 when TCP/IP became the standard for communications.
