What it is

Are you ready to enjoy the fun and convenience of a home network at your house? It's easier than you may think. As the Internet, digital media, smarter and faster PCs and interactive TV become part of everyday life, homeowners increasingly expect complete connectivity - from the kitchen to the kids' rooms and everywhere in between.

By connecting two or more computers, you can share a single Internet connection and expand everyone's productivity and enjoyment, without cramping anyone's style. That old PC you gave to your children doesn't have to sit collecting dust anymore. By networking it, you can store larger files on your newer computer without consuming space on the older, smaller hard drive.

With a network, you can access files stored on any computer from any other computer on the home network. And, you save money by sharing a single Internet access account. You also can get more value out of printers, files and other resources by being able to use them from any networked PC.
