Today's home wireless networks offer
tremendous advantages over hard-wired networks-among them,
unprecedented portability and, of course, the freedom from
wires strung all over your house! Unless you have a firm grasp
on all the latest networking technologies, though, wireless
networks won't free you from digging your way through a
collection of confusing, jargon-riddled manuals; dealing with
obscure configuration mo-des; and finally, hoping somehow it
will all work once you flip the switch.

If you want a home wireless network without
the headaches, then Complete Wireless Home
Networking: Windows XP Edition, by wireless networking
authority Paul Heltzel, is for you.
Written in an engaging, conversational style, this book offers
reliable advice on determining your equipment needs, then
guides you through each step of building a wireless
network-installation, setup, configuration, and
troubleshooting. And with minimal fuss, you'll have a home
wireless network that's fast, secure, and optimized for your
physical environment and computing requirements. Whether
you're accessing the Internet from your back yard, sending
jobs to a printer downstairs, or transferring files
effortlessly, you'll wonder how you got by without a wireless
network.
This book focuses
on how to smartly connect your home computers wirelessly. The
wireless market is expanding quickly. New standards,
inclu-ding high-speed 802.11a, and the
emergence of other "no-new-wires"
technologies, such as powerline and phoneline, are making the
home networking market a slightly confusing one for consumers.
The book offers tips and tricks for finding the best equipment
for your job, then with illustrations walks you through the
wireless network setup that's right for you.
