Types of Home/Business Networks
​
There are two main types of home networks: wireless (WiFi) and wired.
​
1. Wireless Home Network
​
Wireless WiFi home networks are the most popular kind of home networking. There are two main benefits of wireless networks:
-
They are compatible with any WiFi-enabled device, including mobile devices such as smart phones, tablets and smart TVs.
-
They are incredibly easy to connect to, as they only require a wireless modem.
2. Wired Home/Business Networks
​
Wired networks are commonly used in large homes where the WiFi signal can weaken if it needs to pass through walls or travel a great distance. With a wired network we install lots of data points where you need them most – and you can then plug in your computer, printer or other device at these points – except for smart phones and tablets.
​
However we even have a way around that! We’ll install WiFi modem to a LAN point to extend the reach of your WiFi signal. Combining wired networking with wireless network usually yields the best results.
