Wireless & Wired network installation...

Summary

If you have more than 1 PC in your home and find yourself constantly wondering around with blank disks, CD's or USB drives. Well now could be the time to think about networking them together. This will save you the trouble of running around the house, wasting CDs and valuable time. ComputaWorks can setup your network hardware from only £19.99. Any additional hardware required will be charged for.

What can I do with my network?

A network allows you the freedom of using any PC or connected device in your home, from one central point. You might have a big laser printer that looks a bit unsightly in your living room but with a wireless network, you can put the printer out of sight with the aid of a wireless print server.

As well as using PCs, you can use a notebook to connect to a wireless network from anywhere in the house. Depending on your type of wireless network, you can even go into the garden on a summer’s day and work outside!

If you work from home and are very conscious about the safety of your data, you could plug in an external hard drive on to your network and use it as a backup or data storage device.

How will the machines be connected?

When deciding on a network, you need to make one of two decisions, a wired network or a wireless one. If your machines are in the same room then a wired network could be an option, but if you have 1 pc upstairs and 1 downstairs then a wireless network would be recommended.

What equipment do I need?

In order to use a recommended wireless network, you will need to have the following items:

• 2 PCs/Notebooks
• 2 Network Interface Cards (NIC's)
• 1 wireless router/switch to share your Internet connection
• A broadband Internet connection

Is a wireless network safe?

A wireless network is extremely safe and secure, providing you use the security features found on the wireless router, and install a software firewall on each PC on the network. This will ensure that the network can only be accessed by people in your home.
