| Once you have broadband in the home… nothing internet is ever the same. Home applications are as prevalent as your imagination. Not just your computer benefits from the internet. Video on Demand, Music on Demand, Downloads shared storage, Cable and DSL providers are all part of the landscape. You can buy some broadband, buy some cable or satellite video, buy a couple of boxes to plug all this stuff into and the next thing you know, everyone is at your house for anything entertaining… and this is a good thing. It is simple and for the most fairly reasonably priced. If you are the hands on person, you love it. Here are some of the out of the box capabilities of most home networks (well they should be). 1. Shared broadband access. Every internet capable device on the premise should be able to gain access 2. Shared Resources. In a simply defined home network it is expected that , files, printers, scanners, music and other media can be made available for anyone’s use 3. Services that interface home entertainment systems to cable and satellite providers are accessible 4. When introduced, wireless, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth devices should interface without a hitch. They even have internet home appliances for the kitchen… Internet/TV on your Refrigerator… my my what will they think of next? |
This can be one of the most frustrating supposed to be simple things you can get your "hands off" self into. On a good day you can bring 20 boxes into the house, open every last one of them and manage to get them properly connected together and the very first time you turn them on… EVERYTHING WORK JUST FINE. That is on a good day. If you have a simple network put together with decent tools and a clear intent, it is likely that you can be happy with keeping your hands off your home network. The other scenario is constant frustration brought on by unfulfilled and probably irrational expectations of what you get in a home network. Either way you need some guidance. The most ominous thing about the home network is the inerrant exposure created on startup. |
