Now a day’s wireless
networks are the very useful source of networking field of computer
networking of the present era. There are different types of technologies that
are used in the past that can operate with the help of wires but they cannot
provide the faster networking to the user. However, after lots of researches
and the modern theories these networks become wireless called as wireless networks. The network that is
required for networking purpose with the help of different types of wireless
devices is referred to as wireless network such as Wireless LAN
or WiFi. People use wireless networks widely because they provide the
long-range working without the hassle ness of the cables. As wireless networks
has lots of important aspects in the field of networking it also have some
disadvantages such has sometimes it can provide the secure networking and it is
very easy to break the security of some types of wireless networks
Types of Wireless networks:
Wireless networks are categorized into three basic types that
are almost used in every configuration of the networks wirelessly. These types
are as follows:
1.
Personal Area Network (PAN).
2.
Local Area Network (LAN)
3.
Wide Area Network (WAN)
How to Setup Wireless network:
Ø
Required
Hardware:
To configure the wireless network on
your personal computer we need different types of hardware. This hardware is
connected with the computer in such a way that it can provide the easy and the
convenient access to the network. The hardware that is used in setting up the
wireless network is as follows
- Wireless Router
- Ethernet cable or modem
- DSL broadband connection
- Different type of network adapter cards
- Second Ethernet cable
Ø Setting up the Network:
In this step, we have to arrange
the above given hardware in such a way that it runs the network wirelessly and
provide the users the easiest approach to the network. First of all, make the
connection between the router and your system by connecting the required
Ethernet cable with the wireless local area network router through the routing
port present at the backside of the wireless routing device. When this
connection is complete then connect the second given Ethernet cable with wide
area network port of the router. After theses connection start the router and
do initialization requirements of the router. In this step if your connection
to the internet has been configured then move to connect the internet
wirelessly and if you are not able to connect to the internet then check out
the cable connected between the system and the router. Then again, turn on the
router and check the connectivity.
Ø Router Configuration:
After the successful connection
between hardware and the system then it’s time to configure the router that is
the main source of networking wirelessly. Open the configuration wizard and
follow the instructions given on the screen. Once you complete the
configuration of the router then you personalize your router from other
resources and have a safe networking access to the internet technology.
Ø Configure the Networking Adapters:
The final and the last step in
setting up the wireless network is the installation of the different types of
the networking adapters or cards. There are different types of wireless access
cards such as PCI or USB wireless card etc. First, install the card in the
system and then install its required software by following the instructions
given in the opening wizard of the software.
Ø Receiver:
The last and the final device that is
required for wireless networks is the receiver. It is the type of device that
receives the signals in the form of radio signals transmits from the wireless
router is called as receiver. It only receives those data transferring signals
that are emitted from the routing device and carried out its required working.
