LAN Hardware

LAN Hardware

1. Router

   • We would have to use a router because it shares the Internet signal between the multiple devices.

2. Ethernet cable

   • We would have to use an Ethernet cable because it connects computers together so email, files, etc can be accessed from multiple devices

3. Network Interface card

   • We would have to use a Network interface card because it contains the electronic circuitry required to communicate using a wired connection (e.g., Ethernet) or a wireless connection (e.g., WiFi).

4. wireless network interface card

   • The reason we use wireless network interface card is that it allowes us to connect to a wireless radio-based computer network, rather than a wired network, such as Ethernet.

5. Wireless access point

   • The reason we use wireless access point is that it allows a WiFi device to connect to a wired network.

6. Wifi range extender

   • We would have to use a wifi range extender because depending on where in the house you are the wifi wont reach or the connection would be bad

7. Server

   • We would have to use a server because it is strongly dedicated to the purpose of running one or many services in order to serve various needs of the programs that are running on the same system network as well as other systems.

8. Switch

   • We would have to use a switch because it connects multiple devices together on a computer network by using packet switching to receive, process, and forward data to the destination device.
