Long Description Windows XP Home Networking 2E approaches complex networking technologies through Paul Thurrott’s well-known and appreciated conversational, personal style. The book focuses on home networking, specifically in an environment where one or more computers run Windows XP. Windows XP is by far the dominant personal computing platform today, and the skills users learn through this book transfer to corporate and portable computing environments. Windows XP Home Networking makes home networking easy. With more and more families keeping an older computer in service when a new PC is purchased, there is now an opportunity for hundreds of millions of people worldwide to take advantage of the benefits of home networking. This book teaches the reader how to share Internet connections, share local resources like files and printers, and also ensure that their network is safe from attackers, and it prepares users for a future of connected devices in the home. It is a task-based guide to setting up XP-based home networks and focuses heavily on security, wired and wireless networking topics, broadband connections, XP SP2-specific changes, new XP versions such as Tablet PC Edition 2005 and Media Center Edition 2005, non-Microsoft networking application alternatives where applicable, and leading edge technologies such as home media servers, PDAs, smartphones, and Bluetooth. |
