Networking: Who Uses Home
Networking?
- Home Offices
Many home network users are home-based consultants and
entrepreneurs who are familiar with the benefits of the
traditional office network environment that want products to be
easy to use and maintain with no new wiring, or no cabling to
intall or be disrupted. This rising group of professionals often
travel with a laptop and usually own a PC for the family, as well.
Home networks make it easier to share Internet access, printers
and files between these systems. Home networks usually
support up to about 10 users.
- Families with
Multiple Computers
A new user group has emerged in home network trends - families
with multiple computer users sharing one Internet access account.
Instead of family members taking turns to access the Internet, the
home network enables multiple computers to simultaneously share
Internet access, files, software and other equipment. Using the
home network, the kids can play against each other without having
to be in the same room - think about the peace and quiet!
