Let GeeksOnTime assist you on setting up a network in your home to
allow you to have:
Today, cable and DSL service and other high speed options are
making their way through every home in the country. If you are like
most people, you may have more than one computer, maybe an
additional notebook for travelling or going to and from the office,
a cell phone, a PDA and maybe even a music or video system. Making
all these devices work together and share information is what is
called a network.
At GeeksOnTime, we call this BEYOND THE COMPUTER
because no longer is your information sitting on just one machine.
It is spread out across a network of machines and devices.
HIDDEN ADVANTAGES
Having a properly designed home network offers great advantages
and can help you to protect your information from being lost or
corrupted. Every machine that uses the network has vital information
on it that, if lost, would be disastrous. Imagine losing your
address books, word documents, financial data, digital photographs
or downloaded music due to virus or other kinds of corruption.
A well designed network allows you to make sure this information
is centrally and automatically
backed up and protected. We recommend using
your home network for more than just accessing the Internet and
sharing printers. You can use it to automatically store backup
copies of all of the most important files, photographs, video and
audio on one backup hard drive for all the machines on the network.
A GeeksOnTime technician can set this up for you in less than an
hour.
WIRELESS FREEDOM
With a wireless home network you are free to place
your PCs anywhere in your home, and have them instantly connected to
your network and access the Internet from any room in your home
wirelessly. Use your notebook PC to surf the Internet from your home
office, or sit down in front of the television and surf the web from
the comfort of your couch or favorite chair.
Wireless connections are a good way to go if you are renting, if
wiring a particular location involves too much labor and, of course,
if you have a laptop. There is nothing more convenient than being
able to check email and browse the web from your living room, the
patio, or the bedroom.
Whether you have an old Windows 98 system, a brand new Windows XP
machine, a PALM PILOT, or a sophisticated Music and Video Server, we
can help you to get the most out of your home network.
Do you have more
than one computer in the house? Are they all able to connect to the
Internet at the same time? Do you have at least one notebook
computer? Looking to go wireless?
