NETWORKING & WIRELESS SERVICES INCLUDING SETUP AND OPTMIZATION
Getting Your Devices Connected
A home area network (HAN) or small office network (SOHO) is a type of computer network that facilitates communication among devices within the close vicinity. Devices capable of participating in this network include network printers, mobile phones, computers, media libraries, security cameras, thermostats, or televisions. These devices often gain enhanced emergent capabilities through their ability to interact. These additional capabilities can be used to increase the quality of life inside the home or office in a variety of ways, such as automation of repetitive tasks, increased personal productivity, enhanced home security, and easier access to entertainment.
