Local networking refers to the process of connecting multiple devices within a specific geographic area, such as an office, building, or campus, in order to share information and resources.
Local networking uses various technologies, such as Ethernet or Wi-Fi, to establish a connection between devices. This allows the devices to communicate with each other and share data and resources.
Local networking allows for efficient communication and collaboration between devices, making it easier to share files, printers, and other resources. It also allows for easier access to the internet and other network-based services.
Some common types of local networking include Local Area Networks (LANs), which connect devices within a small area, and Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs), which use wireless technology to connect devices.
To set up a local network, you will need a router, which serves as the central point of connection for all devices. You will also need Ethernet cables or a Wi-Fi network adapter for each device. Follow the instructions provided by your router manufacturer to set up the network.
