The No-Hassle Networking Guide

Ready to connect your PCs quickly and securely, with no new wires? The time is right--and we've got answers to all your questions.

Networking computers used to be a job for IT pros or obsessed hobbyists who didn't mind wriggling into a crawl space to run cable. These days, you can connect PCs in your office or home with an afternoon of work--no new wires needed.

Wireless networking technology is maturing and speeding up. And newer, faster phone-line and power-line network technologies provide inexpensive alternatives for sharing Internet access, files, printers, and multimedia. We tested the latest network technologies, surmounted the most common setup hurdles, addressed network security concerns, and assembled several networking setups to create this guide to no-hassle networking.
