This means you only need one modem, andyou can add additional desktops to the network just by plugging in a wireless card and turning it on.Laptops already have a wireless card installed from the producer so they can be carried from room toroom, and they will always have access to the Internet from day one. Since wireless networks operatewithout the need to log in, you do not need to set up usernames or passwords.Another benefit is sharing a printer. What does that mean? Instead of buying a printer to connect to eachcomputer, you can use one printer and connect it to the network. Then everyone on the network can useit. However it does not stop there. Did you know you can share files between computers on the wirelessnetwork? Say you have an important document on your computer that you want your spouse to review. Noneed to email sensitive documents like that. No more sending the files to the computer with the printer orputting them on a disk or flash drive and taking them to the computer with the printer on it. You can sharethat document on the wireless local area network (WLAN) directly from your computer and be done with it.Go wireless and be unshackled from your desk!Christos Hadjigeorgiou 5IBWork Done By Students through Photoshop81
