Book Description
Wireless Home Networking in easy steps is a clear, step-by-step guide for anyone who wants to set up a wireless network in the home. Starting with an introduction to wireless networking, that sets the stage on Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi5, Bluetooth and other standards, this how-to book guides you each step of the way with clear instructions and practical tips aimed at those making their first entry into wireless networking - no experience required!
If you want to find out how to share resources such as files, music and other media, printers and other peripherals or an Internet connection among several computers in your home, then Wireless Home Networking in easy steps will show you how this can be done without turning your home into a spider's web of cables.
The book takes you through the basics of wireless networking in the home from the simplest computer-to-computer link to a fully-fledged home network linking desktop PCs, laptops and peripherals. For each type of network, issues such as hardware selection, installation, and configuration are covered in detail. Essential practical topics like troubleshooting and keeping your wireless network secure are also extensively covered.

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I purchased this book as I know nothing about wireless networks and how to set one up. I have purchased other "In Easy Steps" books in the past and found them to be useful and "reader friendly". I regret this book didnt provide what I was looking for and didnt go anywhere near explaining things without refering to Jargon. I got to page 40 and gave up. It states in the front of the book that it is written in plain English and is easy to follow, this just isnt the case. Avoid this book if you want a basic understanding of Networking.
Format:Paperback
Having read the ther review saying this is a hard read, I couldn't disagree more.
This book is written so that you can set up a network while following the book( not reading it cover to cover first), it has great diagrams, easy step by step procedure. it goes from explaining hubs, network cards, to different types of networks, seting up work groups,installing printers on a network and general troubleshooting.
It may not go into firewalls as much as it should( i had a little trouble at 1st with zonealarm fire wall, which was easily fixed by going in to zonealarm alerts and allowing the other computers access)
I am studying network A+ and I found this a good start for that, buy this book, if you like tinkering with computers and know something about them, or if you a IT student.
