First Steps in Computer Networking — Get it Together

Posted on March 3rd, 2010 by admin in computer networking | 1 Comment »

Computer networking can be a tricky. With different devices and protocols, things can get mixed up rather quickly. However, learning the basics should be manageable for the average computer user. Below explains the first networking building block—connecting computers to the network.

Until recently, the most common way to connect computers directly was with an Ethernet cable, or an Ethernet cable via a hub. However, wireless technologies make connecting even easier. Instead of a cable, think of a wireless network as having invisible, or radio signal, cables.

To connect computers in a wireless network, even if you don’t have an internet connection, can be done very easily—no router required. If the computers have Wi-Fi devices, whether built in or added, you can create an “ad-hoc” wireless network by configuring the computers to ad-hoc mode.
