20.1 What is Home Networking

A Home Network connects computers in a household that share an Internet connection, printers, ﬁles, and other hardware devices like scanners and DVD burners. Home networks eliminate the need to purchase separate Internet connections and hardware devices for each computer.

With a Home Network, you can share documents, digital photos, and other ﬁles between computers (without using ﬂoppy discs or CDs). You can keep a central schedule that can be accessed and updated by each member of the household; play multi-user games; and use one central computer to store pictures, videos, and other multimedia ﬁles that can be accessed from any computer on the network.

Types of Home Networks:

•Wired networks: Require Ethernet cables to transport the data between the computers and the router. (Technical: 10/100 Base-T Ethernet).

•Wireless networks: Eliminate the

need for cables because radio frequency signals are used to transport data between devices, even if they are in different rooms. (Technical: IEEE 802.11b/g/g+).

20.2Important Information About Your Verizon One Home Network

If you are planning to use Verizon One for Home Networking, we strongly recommend that you complete your DSL Installation before setting up your Wireless Home Network.

Your Verizon One is equipped with a Westell VersaLink™ Gateway - a combination DSL modem and wireless router which allows you to share a single DSL connection among multiple computers, printers, and digital cameras, etc. within your home. Multiple users can share the connection using (Wireless) IEEE 802.11b/g/g+ and (Wired) 10/100 Base-T Ethernet connections.
