A home network was constructed using wireless technology. Key components included a router, host devices like laptops and phones, a wireless network adapter, and optional network attached storage. A NAS provides shared storage across the network and can back up data from multiple devices in one centralized location. Setting up a basic home network allows users to share an internet connection, files, streaming media between devices, and enable parental controls.

2. NETWORK
A network is a collection of computers, servers, mainframes,
network devices, peripherals, or other devices connected to one
another to allow the sharing of data.
Example of a network is the Internet, which connects millions of
people all over the world.

3. COMPONENTS OF A COMPUTER NETWORK:
• Hosts (pcs, laptops, handhelds)
• Routers & switches (IP router, Ethernet switch)
• Links (wired, wireless)
• Protocols
• Applications (network services)
• Humans and service agents

4. Building A Simple Network:
Building a simple network includes the following basis steps:
• Installing a network adapter
• Hook up a router
• Connect the wires
• Install drivers and software

5. CONSTRUCT A NETWORK
We built a home network. Home networks connect in two ways: A
wired network or wireless.

6. CHOOSING THE RIGHT NETWORK
For making a home network, we decided to connect our host using
wireless technology.
Wireless Network:
•Increased efficiency
•Better coverage
•Flexibility
•Cost savings
There are also some drawbacks:
•Security
•Transmission speed

7. Hardware Required For Network Construction:
For building a home network, we required the following
hardware:
•A router (D-Link)
•Host devices such as mobile, laptop etc.
•Network adapter (Wi-Fi adapter)
•Network Attached Storage or external disk.
•Network printer (wireless) if required.
•And others.

14. NETWORK ATTACHED STORAGE
Network Attached Storage (NAS) is a file storage device that
provide LAN (Local Area Network) nodes (clients) with a file
based storage that is shared through a network connection.
Network Attached Storage reduces the hassle of file serving from
the external servers on the network.
At a home level it can be used to share small files, videos or backup
data in other devices. It can connect different storage devices on the
network and then reduces the redundancy of data, hence improving the
performance and response time.

15. BENEFITS OF NETWORK ATTACHED
STORAGE:
• NAS devices are easy to setup; You don’t have to be “tech savvy” to set one up
• NAS devices are affordable backup and storage solutions
• NAS devices offer Redundancy using RAID technology in case of hard drive
failures.
• You will have a peace of mind knowing your data is being backed up regularly
and stored in a secure location
• Remote Access; You can access your files anytime and anywhere
• With a NAS system, you will get more value for your money with this all-in-one
backup and storage solution for your business.

16. Conclusion:
Why we need a home network?
The most common reason why people set up a home
network is to share a broadband Internet connection with
multiple computers. But there are many other good reasons
to have a home network.
•Sharing:
•Streaming:
•Parental Controls:
