Configuring your home network
Configuring your home network
The basic configuration setup presumes that your VAIO® computer is set up to work correctly with your type of telephone access and your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Any method of connecting to the Internet provides access to all of the linked computers.
Your VAIO computer connects to the phone lines in your home using a standard telephone wall jack. Add each computer to the network individually, by plugging each one into a separate wall jack.

✍In a home network system, some peripheral equipment, such as a printer, can be shared among all linked computers regardless of where it is attached. The data from your peripheral equipment is also available to all linked computers on the home network.
