Suppose you were going to set up a small network in your home consisting of two or three networked computers.
What network hardware would you purchase (i.e., cable types, computer components, wireless equipment, and so on) and why?Â
To set up a small network in your home you have to purchase a hub and connect your computer to the hub. Now go to your window setting that are in Control Panel and select network settings. In network settings, select home network and click on next. Your window will display that it will take a few minutes. Now wait until window configures your network. When your Window configures your network to connect your PC to the hub and make one PC as a server and that's it.
Your network is now configured and you can share data and other resources such as printer etc.
