How many types of network are there?
Networks are classified according to different criteria:
-
Geographical area: PANs (Personal Area Networks) typically include a laptop, a mobile phone and a PDA; LANs cover a building; MANs (Metropolitan Area Networks) cover a campus or a city; WANs (Wide Area Networks) cover a country or a continent.
-
Architecture: In a client-server network, a computer acts as a server and stores and distributes information to the other nodes, or clients. In a peer- to-peer network, all the computers have the same capabilities - that is, share files and peripherals without requiring a separate server computer.
-
Topology, or layout: In a bus network, all the computers are connected to a main cable, or bus.
In a star network, all data flows through a central hub, a common connection point for the devices in the network. In a ring network, all devices are connected to one another in a continuous loop, or ring.
-
Network protocol: This is the language, or set of rules, that computers use to communicate with each other. Networks use different protocols. For instance, the Internet uses TCP/IP.
-
How do I install a wired modem router?
A modem router is a device that connects your
computer or home LAN to the Internet.
-
Plug one end of the phone cord directly into a phone jack, and the other end into the ADSL port on the router.
-
Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into your computer's network port and the other end into an Ethernet port on the router.
-
Turn on your computer. To set up, or configure, the router, you'll need to input some parameters, for example your ISP's name and phone number.
NOTE: A router has various Ethernet ports, so you can connect various PCs to the router via Ethernet cables.
If you already have a hub or switch connecting a LAN, you only need one cable to connect the hub to the router.
-
How do I log on to the Internet Service Provider?
You need to type in your username and password. Once you are online, you can get email, look for information on the Web, look up IT words in dictionaries, try out new software, and sign up for RSS feeds, newsletters, etc. It is important that you remember to log off after using the Internet. An open line increases the risk of viruses, and hackers might break into your computer to steal confidential data.
-
What is wireless networking?
Wired networks are linked by Ethernet cables, phone lines and high-speed fibre optic cables. Wireless networks, however, use electromagnetic waves, such as radio waves, to transmit data. These are the main types of wireless networks:
Satellites - for long distances WiMAX - for connecting Wi-Fi hotspots Wi-Fi - for medium-range distances Bluetooth - for short distances GSM - for mobile phones
-
What do I need to set up a home wireless lan?
You'll need computers equipped with a wireless adapter or wireless card, a wireless access point (a wireless router) and a broadband internet connection.
