A home network or home area network (HAN) is a residential local area network (LAN) for communication between digital devices typically deployed in the home, usually a small number of personal computers and accessories, such as printers and mobile computing devices.
Home networks may use wired or wireless technologies.
One of the most common ways of creating a home network is by using wireless radio signal technology; the 802.11
Some home networking devices operate in both radio-band signals and fall within the standard 802.11n.
A wireless network can be used for communication between many electronic devices, to connect to the Internet or to wired networks that use Ethernet technology.
With the installation of a home networking device, the network can be accessed by simply plugging the Computer into a wall socket.
The ITU-T G.hn and IEEE Powerline standard, which provide high-speed (up to 1 Gbit/s) local area networking over existing home wiring, are examples of home networking technology designed specifically for IPTV delivery.
A home network may consist of the following components: Older devices may not have the appropriate connector to the network.
As networking technology evolves, more electronic devices and home appliances are becoming Internet ready and accessible through the home network.
