Written for even the most network-shy novice, it begins with themost basic of basics--"A network is nothing more thantwo or more computers connected by a cable (or wireless adapter) sothat they can share information"--and progresses throughall the essentials, from cables, routers and hubs to building awireless network. In clear, simple language, peppered with enoughwry quips and jabs at the cult of IT to make it fun, Doug Lowewalks you through:
* What a network is and how to use it
* How to build a wired or wireless network
* How to secure and optimize a network
* How to troubleshoot a network
* Safely connecting a network to the Internet
* Networking with all major operating systems
This new edition of the bestselling guide features extensiveupdates on the latest networking tools and trends--includingnew Windows Vista and Server 2003 R2--the latest broadbandoptions, new storage and back-ups, and an all new-chapter on VoIPand Internet telephony.
Doug Lowe has written a whole bunch of computer books, including more than 40 For Dummies books (such as PowerPoint 2007 For Dummies, Word 2007 All-In-One Desk Reference For Dummies, and Networking All-In-One Desk Reference For Dummies). He lives in that sunny All-American city of Fresno, California, which isn't nearly as close to San Francisco as most people think, with his wife and his youngest daughter (the other two have flown the coop), and a couple of crazy dogs. He manages the network for an engineering firm in Clovis, CA, and in his free time creates computer-controlled Halloween decorations that rival Disney's Haunted Mansion. Maybe his next book should be Computer-Controlled Halloween Props For Dummies. (For pictures, check out his Web site at www.LoweWriter.com/halloween.)
