Beyond the PC Help

Do you have more than one computer in the house? Are they all able to connect to the Internet at the same time? Do you have at least one notebook computer? Looking to go wireless? Share Printers and files?

Let Express Computer Service assist you on setting up a network in your home to allow you to have:

• File and Printer Sharing between all computers
• Laptop mobility with a wireless connection
• All computers connected to the Internet
• Automated Data Backup for all Computers

Today, cable and DSL service and other high speed options are making their way through every home in the country. If you are like most people, you may have more than one computer, maybe an additional notebook for traveling or going to and from the office, a cell phone, a PDA and maybe even a music or video system. Making all these devices work together and share information is what is called a network.

At Express Computer Service, we call this BEYOND THE COMPUTER because no longer is your information sitting on just one machine. It is spread out across a network of machines and devices.

HIDDEN ADVANTAGES

Having a properly designed home network offers great advantages and can help you to protect your information from being lost or corrupted. Every machine that uses the network has vital information on it that, if lost, would be disastrous. Imagine losing your address books, word documents, financial data, digital photographs or downloaded music due to virus or other kinds of corruption.

A well designed network allows you to make sure this information is centrally and automatically backed up and protected . We recommend using your home network for more than just accessing the Internet and sharing printers. You can use it to automatically store backup copies of all of the most important files, photographs, video and audio on one backup hard drive for all the machines on the network. A Express Computer Service technician can set this up for you in less than an hour.

WIRELESS FREEDOM

With a wireless home network you are free to place your PCs anywhere in your home, and have them instantly connected to your network and access the Internet from any room in your home wirelessly. Use your notebook PC to surf the Internet from your home office, or sit down in front of the television and surf the web from the comfort of your couch or favorite chair.

Wireless connections are a good way to go if you are renting, if wiring a particular location involves too much labor and, of course, if you have a laptop. There is nothing more convenient than being able to check email and browse the web from your living room, the patio, or the bedroom.

Whether you have an old Windows XP system, a brand new Windows Vista machine, an IPhone, Blackberry Windows Mobile phone, or a sophisticated Microsoft Windows Home Media Server, we can help you to get the most out of your home network.
