Computer Networking Support

 

Help and expertise for your home or business to go wireless, speed up connections or create a network with RESCUECOM’s computer networking support.

Computer networking allows several computers to communicate with one another and share files, Internet connections, printers and other devices. A router can share an Internet connection from a modem among multiple computers creating what’s called a local area network (LAN).

 

Wireless technology is enhancing the possibilities of computer networking even further. With proper wireless network adapters, you can connect any computer to a wireless router or WiFi hotspot, or use a wireless router to replace an existing wired network with wireless computer networking support. Wireless connections rely on radio waves, similar to televisions, cell phones and radios. Most new laptops and many desktops come installed with wireless transmitters. There also are wireless cards and USB wireless adapters that you can purchase and install yourself, along with wireless routers, and computer networking support and wireless network troubleshooting help from RESCUECOM, to set up a wireless network.

 

Computer networking, wired or wireless, presents opportunities for hackers and other threats to penetrate your network and take control of your computer, access your information or simply “borrow” your Internet connection. Firewalls protect against unwanted and dangerous intrusions into your network. Routers often come with firewall software built in for immediate computer networking support. Essentially, firewalls analyze the hundreds and thousands of packets of data your modem receives and filters out questionable information. In addition to antivirus software and smart Internet surfing, a firewall is a great solution to protecting your home or business network and is the first and foremost form of computer networking support.

Many small companies, schools, and governments find that an Intranet is a safe way to share files, programs and information over a limited network. An Intranet is distinct from the Internet. An Intranet is set up, for example, on a company’s server and connected to the company’s LAN. Only computers on the network and with proper password clearance can access Intranet websites. The Internet has no such barriers–anyone can connect to and access the Internet. An Intranet offers safer computer networking support solutions with more flexibility and control over content and privacy. An Intranet may be a smart option for businesses looking to enhance internal communication without compromising computer networking support and security.

An increasing number of homes and businesses are setting up their own networks as the technology continues to improve and become more affordable. Consequently, a growing wealth of information and computer networking support is available from companies like RESCUECOM that are responding to the increased demand for computer networking support. Networks allow co-workers to communicate across the building, and family members to trade vacation photos from different computers. We encourage you to see how computer networking could benefit you and to trust our computer networking support team when you need help.
