The internet is a global network connecting millions of computers. To access the internet you will need an Internet Service Provider or an ISP. An Internet Service Provider is a business that provides an individual or business access to the internet. Depending upon the capabilities of the ISP, access may be provided by a dial-up telephone line, a high-speed DSL circuit or cable.
You will also need a web browser, Microsoft Internet Explorer (MSIE) -- is the most widely used World Wide Web browser. You can have more than one computer in your home that has access to the internet. Your access can be wired or wireless. Network Set-up
Computer networks for the home and small business can be built using either wired or wireless technology. Wired networking has been the traditional choice in homes, but wireless technologies are gaining ground fast. Both wired and wireless can claim advantages over the other; both represent viable options for home and other local area networks (LANs).
Wired networks use network cables and network adapters although two computers can be directly wired to each other, wired LANs generally also require central devices like routers to accommodate more computers. Wireless networks utilize radio waves to maintain communication channels between computers. Wireless networking is a more modern alternative to wired networking that relies on cabling between network devices. A wireless network offers advantages and disadvantages compared to a wired network. Advantages of wireless include mobility when using laptops and the elimination of unsightly cables. Disadvantages of wireless include the potential for radio interference due to weather, other wireless devices, or obstructions like walls. Let Computer BooBoo assess your needs, discuss your options and install the network that meets your needs and fits your budget. Call Computer BooBoo at 905-477-3764. Complete System Installation
