Sick of all those wires running throughout your house just to connect a few computers to the internet? Wireless internet will eliminate clutter and provide an excellent high-speed internet connection. Prices on wireless networking components have become much less expensive in recent days, so it won't be as pricey to install your own wireless network as you think....
A high speed internet connection (such as cable internet or DSL) is required for wireless internet.

Set up 1 printer to be shared through the wireless network. A shared printer is a printer that is connected via a printer cable to 1 computer on the network. If that computer is turned on, other computers on the wireless network can use that printer by sending the print job through the connected computer. |
Additional Computers/Laptops Added to Wireless Network: $20 per computer/laptop*

Includes all of the above in "Wireless Network Setup". |

Install and connect up to 5 additional computers/laptops (for a total of 6) to your wireless network. |

Install a print server.* A print server connects a printer directly to the wireless network. This allows any computer on the network to print to it. This is better than a shared printer because the printer does not need to by physically connected to any computer, and no computer needs to remain on to use the printer. |
|
• |
Set up file sharing with all computers on the wireless network. Make music, pictures, videos, or anything else accessible on any computer in the house that is connected to the wireless network. |
|
• |
