PC Magazine Wireless Solutions |
| Neil Randall |
| Cut the cord! The whole world is going wireless with devices as diverse as stereos, TVs, media centers, video recorders, telephones and computers all Wi-Fi enabled these days. PC Magazine Wireless Solutions is the perfect guide for readers who are ready to jump into the wireless fray, and become a part of the connected lifestyle. This easy to follow, hands-on guide first steps readers through the construction of their own wireless network. Understanding wireless standards, choosing the right equipment, and putting it all together – its all here. Next readers configure their wireless networks with the basics including file and printer sharing, user accounts, and setting up WEP and WPA security – an absolute requirement for any wireless network.
After the groundwork is laid, the sky is the limit as readers learn to connect almost anything to their wireless network – PDAs, video game consoles, home entertainment systems, even “smart home” devices to control lights, appliances and more. Readers will learn to expand their network around the house, or even around the block, share with their neighbors, and even build their own custom antennae to boost their signal. Not just for the home, the book also includes great solutions for the office. Readers can add wireless hotspots to an existing network, learn to overcome the challenges of an office environment including walls and floors, set up wireless VPNS and more.
