Millions of computers around the world today are connected by the
Internet, so why is it still so hard to hook up a few PCs in you
own home? Whether you want to share an Internet connection, install
WiFi, or maybe just cut down on the number of printers you own,
home networks are supposed to help make your life easier. Instead,
most aspiring home networkers get lost in a confusing maze of terms

So much of what is commonplace today was once considered
impossible, or at least wishful thinking. Laser beams in the
operating room, cars with built-in guidance systems, cell phones
with email access. There's just no getting around the fact that
technology always has, and always will be, very cool. But
technology isn't only cool; it's also very smart. That's why one of
