Utilizing a shared Internet connection over a network is nearly identical to that of using it in a stand alone manner. The benefits of sharing an Internet connection in such a manner means you only need to purchase one Internet connection for your entire home or office and may reduce sign-on difficulties. SEADS Services specializes in the setup and deployment of computer networks and can configure a network specifically for your needs.

All computers in your home network should be protected by a firewall. A firewall helps to prevent the spread of viruses or worms across your network if they infect one computer. A computer on the network could also become infected through a separate Internet connection, such as a laptop that is used on your home network and on public networks. Or, a virus could be introduced to a computer on your network through software installed from a CD or floppy disk.

Yes. Wired and Wireless routers have controls that will allow you to see who is logged into your home network.

Anything you download over the Internet or an electronic bulletin board system could have a virus.

Make sure there is no router or firewall between computers and AB64s in your network. Also, make sure there is no firewall or antivirus (such as AVG) software running on your computers (including the built-in firewall that now comes with Windows XP.)
