New Networking
If you are currently running a business with multiple stand
alone computers, you'll get more out of your investment with
your computers connected into a Local Area Network (LAN).
The hardware and software required to do this is now less
expensive, easier to use, and provides faster connections,
so you really have no excuse not to network.
The advantages of networking are many and include such things
as centralised file storage, which makes backup of crucial
data easier, and elimination of file duplication - ie you
only keep one copy of each file in a central location, not
one on everyone's computer. Maxinet can discuss other advantages
particular to your situation, so feel free to call us for
more information. Sharing a Broadband connection is also a
common reason for networking.
Ethernet is generally the way to connect your computers into
a LAN. This means running cables between your computers to
a central connecting point, called a Hub or Switch. If your
computers are located in different rooms, and running cable
is not a simple task, then you might want to consider wireless
networking. Recent advances in technology mean that computers
networked wirelessly are just as efficient as those hard wired,
and it may be that you use a combination of these methods
on your network. |
