Connected Via Computer Network
Aug 30th
Most of us remain ignorant over how a computer works. We simply just turn on the computer and connect to the internet to access various websites. However, have you ever wondered how we can log on to the internet?
Basically, you are connected by a computer network which is divided into two major categories. They are the client/server network and peer-to-peer network. In the client/server network, there is a computer which plays the major role known as server whereby all the files, data in the form of web pages, documents or spread sheets files, videos, database and resources are kept. Other computers which get information and data from the server are therefore known as client. Hence the term client/server network whereas in the peer-to-peer network, all the computers play equal roles because no computer act as the centralized server.
In a computer network, there is something called a network topology which describes the structure or layout of a network. Some of the network topologies are described as the star, bus, ring and mesh structure. For example in the star topology, all the computers in the network are connected by a centralized device such as hub or switch which form a ‘star structure.’ However if one of the hubs fails to function, then the computers within the network will lose their connectivity and communication.
Computer Network Repair for Beginners
Jul 26th
While computer network repair is not something most beginning computer users want to tackle, there are a few things you can check that are common causes why your computer network won’t work. Sometimes, checking simple things can make your network start working again. You might be able to isolate the problem, making computer network repair less time-consuming, in the event you need an on-site computer network repair technician. Most of the time, computer networks will use Windows programs or SQL servers.
The first thing to try is to re-boot the system. This means you need to turn off all the peripheral computers and the main computer or network server will need to be re-booted, (turned off and then turned back on). Don’t forget to re-boot the router because sometimes, this will be your problem. After you have tried this approach, you might find the system will be working because sometimes, an electrical blip causes the network to have errors, when booting up. This process might take a few minutes.
