Networking - Wireless

Wired home networks need a dedicated connection to each computer. If your home isn't already networked, this can be an expensive proposition. What's more, the mobility of the computer, printer or gaming console, is limited to rooms where there's a network connection available.

Wireless home networks use radio signals to exchange data and share your Internet connection, this means that there is no need to have unsightly cables throughout the house. Even your printer can be wirelessly connected, saving valuable desk space beside your PC. Computers can be moved wherever you want them in your home, in the lounge, in the bedrooms and even outdoors while you remain connected to the Internet and your other computers.

Perhaps you're now wondering if it's time to take that next step and go wireless at home, especially since wireless networks seem to be popping up everywhere.

The good news is that going wireless is easier and less expensive than you think.
