Networking has become commonplace in the home. In years past, it took a trained technician to set up and manage a computer network; that's not the case anymore. With more and more households having multiple PCs, there is an increased demand to network those PCs to share files, peripherals, and an Internet connection. And it's become much easier to create a home network, thanks to easier-to-use wireless networking technologies and equipment. The problem is setting up a wireless network can still be somewhat confusing, and often difficult. Even setting up a simple wireless network to share an Internet connection can be a frustrating trial-and-error process. What kind of wireless network should you choose -- 802.11a, b, g, or n? What equipment do you need? How do you configure all your computers to work on the network? How do you share a single printer on your network? The confusion continues when one considers the different issues related to different operating systems. Setting up a wireless network under Windows Vista is much different than setting up a similar network under Windows XP. Users are looking for simple answers to all these questions. Unfortunately, most networking books today are geared toward technology-savvy networking professionals. Where does the average user turn to for solutions to his wireless networking problems? The answer is this book -- Wireless Networking with Windows Vista.

If You Want to Understand How Computer Networks Work and Learn How to Set One up, Then Keep Reading! A decade ago, computers were considered a luxury and not a necessity. It was the exclusive property of the wealthy and lucky and a network was exclusively reserved for large organizations and corporations. However, things have changed. Nearly everyone now has access to a computer or some other Internet-enabled devices. Wireless networking technology has made a network available for all and sundry. However, this comes at a price: insecurity. Your network can be remotely hacked while your confidential information may be stolen for a ransom (ransomware) or some other purposes. The computer networking industry has continued to impact people's lives and businesses over the years. Almost all the sectors of the human economy have been impacted either directly or indirectly by networking, and it will continue to have much influence in the future as well. What started as a group of computers designed to send commands to each other has gradually become a sector covering the cloud, Wi-Fi, Internet of Things, Network Attached Storage, and other technologies. However, what's the origin of this highly influential technology? With the help of this guide, you will be able to learn the following: How to Set up Computer Networks Computer networking for home user Manage IP How to secure your network Cloud Networks Linux Networking AND MORE!!
