A Guide To Setting Up Home Wireless Internet
Personal and professional demands are forcing more people to opt for home wireless internet. The advantages are further accentuated with the ability to work on internet from anywhere in the house and on top of that setting up home wireless internet is quiet easy. But before you decided to setup home wireless internet, there are some basic things a person should know. The basics were put forward by a webmaster of hostgator and hostgator review who also has much to offer in terms of ecommerce.
Hardware You Will Need
A typical setup of internet at home is that of a poadband connection. A cable is connected to a modem, which in turn is connected to your computer or your laptop. But this kind of setup is unable to provide you with mobility as cable cannot go everywhere in the house. This changes when you setup home wireless internet connection. All you need is a wireless router to do it. Instead of modem, the poadband cable is connected to a pre-programmed wireless router with capabilities of providing internet connection to more than one computer/laptops. If the poadband connection was for a PC, then you will need to buy an wireless network adapter to connect your PC to wireless network, or just connect the PC directly to the wireless router, conditionally thee router is nearby PC or the cable is long enough.
If you do not have any sort of internet connection and wan to setup a wireless home internet, then better go for a wireless router, which directly connects your computers/laptops to internet. These wireless routers act like TV antenna's which receive their signals from communication towers located nearby. There are absolutely no wires involved in such kind of setup and are quiet easy to setup. This way you have a truly mobile wireless internet because of absence of any type of wires.
Safety Tips
However, be cautious while setting up home wireless internet. Since you are paying for the service, you would not like anybody to use it on your expense or use it for some illegal activity. Turn off the router whenever not in use, this is the simplest security measure. Do not keep default settings of wireless router while setting up home wireless internet as these settings are known to most people. Also change the username and password, which come with shipped router, these are also known to lot of people and can be easily tapped into. Last but not the least, firewall your wireless router, as it is as vulnerable from hackers if not properly protected.
What is the difference between a wireless router, a network adapter and a modem.?
I would like to know the functions of a wire/wireless router, a wire/wireless network adapter and a modem in simple english if possible. thanks.
Ok here goes the over simplified version kay?
1) Modem = internet being sent to your house from internet service provider or ISP. The internet in your house "starts" here
2) wireless router = splitter, this allows you to have Wi-fi and send your internet wirelessly or split your signal between different ethernet cables for wired access.
3)network adapter = receiver. Your computer has a network adapter either a usb one, or a pcie card for desktop or a built in one for laptops. This allows you to receive the internet and use it.
Sanho previews CloudFTP at Macworld | iWorld 2012 (TUAW)
Sanho had its Kickstarter-funded CloudFTP at Macworld | iWorld 2012 this year,
and the project has generated a lot of excitement.
Sanho's Daniel Chin originally sought $100,000 in funding through Kickstarter,
but wound up with more than 2,700 backers and more than $262,000 by the time
the pledge drive ended three weeks ago.
CloudFTP is an adapter that turns any USB storage device into a wireless file
server. It can share files with any WiFi-enabled device and will back up data
to cloud storage on the Internet. It creates its own ad-hoc wireless network
to share data, and it can be accessed from a web app, iOS app (there's one for
Android as well) or via FTP.
CloudFTP is expected to ship in early February to Kickstarter participants and
will cost $99.95 retail. Check out the video below to discover CloudFTP can
do.
