Setting Up a Local Area Network A home local area network (LAN) may consist of either a wired or a wireless network that you can use to connect the computer to other devices on the network, including other computers. The network components may include a hub or a switch, which can connect multiple devices to the network, or a router, which can connect computers or a broadband Internet connection to the network. This network connection also enables you to share data and printers or other devices among your computers. The network connection to the Internet is usually through a dial-up or cable modem. A wired network uses Ethernet cables to connect the devices on the network. For example, the Ethernet cable plugs into the computer network interface adapter and the router. A wireless network uses radio waves to connect the devices on the network. For example, both the computer and the router have an antenna and adapter that use the same Wi-Fi industry standard: 802.11n, 802.11b, 802.11g, or 802.11a. Setting Up the Computer 9

A home local area network (LAN) may consist of either a wired or a wireless network that
you can use to connect the computer to other devices on the network, including other
computers. The network components may include a hub or a switch, which can connect
multiple devices to the network, or a router, which can connect computers or a broadband
Internet connection to the network. This network connection also enables you to share data
and printers or other devices among your computers. The network connection to the
Internet is usually through a dial-up or cable modem.
A

the Ethernet cable plugs into the computer network interface adapter and the router.
A

both the computer and the router have an antenna and adapter that use the same
Wi-Fi industry standard: 802.11n, 802.11b, 802.11g, or 802.11a.

You can connect more than one display device (CRT monitor, flat panel monitor,
TV, and so on) to the computer at a time (select models only). You can quickly change
which device displays the computer desktop by pressing Alt+F5. Each time you press
Alt+F5, the computer desktop appears on the next device. If pressing Alt+F5 does not
