Home Networks
|
If you have more than one PC at home, did you ever think about connecting them in a network? It’s not expensive, and brings with it many benefits. For example, two (or more) networked computers can share a single broadband internet connection, share a single printer, and share files between the machines. In addition, any game-playing members of the family will appreciate being able to play multiplayer games over the network with zero latency or lag. There are basically two different ways of networking machines - using wires or wirelessly. With a wired network you require, well, wires. If you’re planning on having just two machines networked and they are physically close together then a simple wired network is probably the way to go, and is inexpensive to install. If the machines you want networked together are not physically close to each other, e.g. one machine is upstairs and one is downstairs, then you have the problem of running cables between the machines. Unless this is done at the time a house is being built or renovated, when the cables can be hidden behind plasterboard walls, the result is not always tidy. In cases like this, a wireless network is a better option. The main advantage of a wireless network is that you are no longer tethered to the network cable. So, if you have a laptop, you can connect to the network and then browse the internet from any room in the house, even the back garden. Wireless systems have fallen dramatically in price in recent times, so let us surprise you with a quote. Whether you choose to go wired or wireless (or a combination of both), we will take full care of installing, configuring and securing your home network. |
