Capabilities

Sharing Internet connections
If you have more than one computer that would like to be on the Internet at the same time then you will want to get cable or DSL broadband Internet service and share that fast connection. With a network all computers can be on the Internet at the same time and not tie up your phone line.

Sharing printers
When you have a network you do not need to purchase a separate printer for every computer. Networks allow you to share one printer with multiple computers.

Sharing files
With a network you can share your Microsoft Word or Excel files with any computer on the network. This allows you to collaborate on projects or save backup copies of your important files on another computer.

Networks can be either hard wired (use actual wires to connect the computers) or wireless. Wired networks are faster, less expensive and more stable, but wireless is the wave of the future. It allows you to place computers without unsightly wires. Sometimes a combination of the two is the best solution. Let me help you decide what is best for your situation
