Cable
A cable connection provides fast and always-on Internet service via a
cable television line. This service is generally available in large cities. You
can use your telephone and watch cable TV at the same time you are
connected to the Internet.
Network connections
A LAN (Local Area Network) is a group of computers (for example, within
an office building or home) that share a common communications line and
resources. When you set up a network, you can share files, peripheral
devices (such as a printer) and an Internet connection. You can set up a
LAN using wired technologies (such as Ethernet) or wireless technologies
(such as WiFi or Bluetooth).
Wireless networks
A wireless LAN or WLAN is a wireless local area network, which may link
two or more computers without using wires. Setting up a wireless network
is easy and allows you to share files, peripheral devices and an Internet
connection.
