Share Internet
Save money on internet service fees by connecting all your computers to one high-speed internet connection. (Even if you only have dial-up you can still benefit from this). And, if you install a wireless network you can access the internet from anywhere in the house, or even in the yard.

Share Printers
With a home network everyone can use the same printers, scanners, fax machines, and other peripherals. Keep better track of expensive ink cartridge use, and cut down on waste paper. You can even use shared printers or scanners from a wireless laptop or PDA.

Share Files
Set up folders on your individual computers so that anyone on the network can access them. Retrieve work files from your den office computer with a laptop in the family room, and password protect certain files so only those you designate can reach them.

Other Benefits
Home networks are great for playing network capable video games, and with the right setup you can even send video and DVD signals to computers throughout your home. Some security setups allow you to monitor your home from any internet-capable computer, and software has been developed to allow you to control and monitor your utility usage; water, heat, electricity, etc... Imagine being able to program your house to have the heat off all day and then tell it when you are coming home so it will warm up for you. With emerging technologies the home network will become less of a luxury and more a part of every home. Call W.I.K. and start yours today!
