printer or scanner.

Also you can share an internet connection with other computers in your home.

Installation speed and simplicity

Installing a wireless LAN system can be fast and easy and eliminates the

need to pull cables through walls and ceilings.

Components of a wireless LAN

To set up your Wireless network at home you need to have the following:

Access point (router)

Access points (routers) are two-way transceivers that broadcast data into the

surrounding environment. Access points act as a mediator between wired

and wireless network. Most routers have a built-in DSL modem that will allow

you access to a high speed DSL internet connection. The ISP (Internet

Service Provider) you have chosen normally supplies a modem/router with

the subscription to their services. Read carefully the documentation supplied

with your Access point/router for detailed setup instructions.
