While the building blocks for networking the small office and home have been laid, there is a dearth of accessible literature on the topic. There is already a broad selection of books available to assist professionals in the installation of networks in the office environment, but there are no books geared specifically towards helping network neophytes install small networks. Vendor web sites are currently the primary source of information for those interested in small office and home networking and, as such, are designed for people who are singularly focused on a particular product niche.In response to these needs, Easy Networking will be a great source for learning everything about the basics of networking. This book emphasizes simple explanations, valuable tips on avoiding common pitfalls, and easy-to-follow instructions to get you up and running quickly. Covers the basics of networking, as well as media selection considerations, ethernet cabling, ethernet cards, wireless network setup and cards, phoneline networking, Windows networking, file sharing, printer sharing, networking your home office, multi-player gaming, connecting your network to the Internet, and video and audio conferencing over the Internet. Networking applications for Linux and Macintosh computers will also be covered.
