A local area network is a group of interconnected computers and peripheral equipment within a limited area, such as a home, an office, or small group of buildings. The LAN allows computers to share resources and information with each other such as printers, internet connection, software applications (network games) and computer files. Setting up a full network that allows all of your devices to communicate together easily, and keeps the security tight as well, requires a little understanding in networking basics.

The key hardware components of a wireless computer network (WLAN) include adapters, routers, access points, antennas and repeaters.
Most WiFi wireless access points / routers claim to support up to 255 connected devices. Access points and routers support a small number - usually 1 to 4 - of wired Ethernet and the rest via wireless connections.
Wireless computer network equipment typically uses radio signals in either a 2.4 GHz range or a 5 GHz range. These numbers are advertised prominently on product packaging, but their meaning is often misunderstood. Is 5 GHz network hardware better than 2.4 GHz hardware just because it carries a bigger number? No. 5 GHz hardware offers a few advantages over 2.4 GHz hardware, but in practice, 2.4 GHz is usually the better choice for home and other wireless local networks.
Wi-Fi wireless technology simplifies the sharing of network connections between multiple computers and people. Even if you don't subscribe to Internet service, you can log on to public hotspots or to a neighbour's wireless access point to get online. However, using someone else's Internet service isn't always a good idea. It may even be illegal in case you access your neighbours Internet without their permission.
