home network. Two options are available for integrating the device into a network:

Via a wired connection (LAN, Ethernet)

Use a standard network cable to connect the device to a router, switch or hub—to con-

nect it to your PC directly, use a crossover cable.

Via a wireless connection (WLAN, Wi-Fi)

A wireless connection uses a radio link to an access point, router or computer.

You will come across a number of the following topics automatically when integrating your

number of items are relevant only in connection with wireless networks. We’ll continue

with the actual setup in Chapter “5 – Scenario 1 – the wired network integration”!
