Understanding Wireless Networks
-
Make Sure Your PCs Are Wireless
Most laptops today have built-in wireless networking connections, but desktops system may not. If yours doesn't, you'll need to install a wireless network adapter card, which is typically inexpensive and easy to use install.

Pay Attention To Location
The signal generated from each wireless access point or router extends up to approximately 300 feet. Walls, metal (such as in elevator shafts) and floors can negatively affect range. And the wireless signal's strength weakens the longer it must travel. For best results, space out your access points and position them in central areas.
Tip: Access points can provide stronger signals when installed on or near ceilings. -
Secure Your Network
Security is vital to wireless networking. Some security methods to consider for your network include:
- Data encryption, so only authorized users can access information over your wireless network
- User authentication, which identifies computers trying to access the network, and ensures only the correct users are able to obtain access
- Secure access for visitors and guests, giving them access to the internet, but not your devices
- Control systems, which protect the laptops and other devices that use the network
