Benefits of networking
A network lets you:
■
Share a single Internet connection
■
Share computer drives
■
Share peripheral devices
■
Stream audio and video files
■
Play multi-player games
Sharing a single Internet connection
Each computer that is connected to the network can share the same broadband
connection or modem and telephone line and access the Internet at the same
time. This saves on the cost of installing another telephone line for your second
computer and paying for a second Internet service provider (ISP) account.
Sharing drives
With a network, you can copy files from computer to computer by copying
and pasting or dragging and dropping. You will no longer waste your time
transferring files by using diskettes. In addition, you can map a drive on a
networked computer to another computer, and access the files as if they were
located on the hard drive of the computer you are using.
