Wireless networking is as new as a decade or so and the extent to which it has spread today clearly shows the advantages and potential it holds for the future. To begin with, networking was common among computers of several organizations and government bodies over the last century. But this was wired networking and held several difficulties if new systems had to be added to an existing network. Later several new topologies have been introduced and a few of them successfully implemented in the real time scenario. Though this had been widely used for a couple of decades, the change in technology has brought out the limitations of wired networks and most organizations, research labs, universities and public places are switching to wireless networking owing to its seamless benefits. So if you have decided on a wireless network, you should know something about how to set up wireless network. First consider how many computers will be connected to the network, where the home of the entire network will be, and what operating system do you plan to use in the systems. Once these have been taken care of, the first step is to install a wireless router. If you plan to build a new network and not develop / upgrade an existing one, place the wireless router in a central location so the network coverage is good throughout the place. A point to note, the computers closer to the router receive greater speed than ones further away, so the placement of the router is the key. The next step is to fix access points on the router. The placement of the access points is also important as they also affect the speed and connectivity of the computers in wireless networking. The next step is to configure your wireless adapter with the router and access points. This can be done by first installing the TCP/IP on the host computer and the fixing the adapter to the computers which will be explained in the object documents. All subsequent settings can be set up manually but it is important that all the wireless adapters must share the same parametric settings for the wireless networking to function properly. Once this has been done, the last step is to configure the Ad Hoc network to the home LAN or all the computers that need to access the wireless network. Connecting the wireless adapter to the Ad Hoc mode, and not the infrastructure mode can do this, if you want to set up a home LAN with restricted users. Else, set it as Infrastructure mode in which the router detects any new computer and settings are adapted accordingly. There is also a security aspect which one needs to consider when you set up wireless network. When you want to keep your network remote, just set a security password and disable the SSID so that your network is not detected in random search. Other aspects related to setting up a wireless networking could be easily understood while working on it, or if you think you cannot do the work yourself, get a technician or company to set up


wireless network.
