What is local area network
A local-area network (LAN) is a computer network that spans a relatively small area, it is only consists of a few devices that are all connected to each other.
You may want a LAN so you can share files, send pictures and music to other computers, connect to a printer easily, or have a good time LAN party to play games with some friends.

Things you needed if you want to connect three or more computer in your network
• At least three or more computer
• A Straight Through Cables (If you use third devices like modem, router, switch, or hub)
• A Modem / Router / or Switch (as long as they have many RJ45 port is fine)

What is wireless local area network
A wireless local-area network (WLAN) uses radio waves to connect devices such as computer or mobile phone to the Internet and to your business network and its applications.
Wi-Fi is the basic networking tech that lets you link your devices up to the internet without the use of wires. Instead, your router sends out a radio wave signal via an antenna, which your gadgets can then connect to. It's super simple and a lot less hassle than faffing around with ethernet cords.
How to setup your Wi-Fi
If you want devices connected to your network wirelessly - the best choice for smartphones, tablets, streaming sticks, and so on - you'll need to set up Wi-Fi.
Your router or network switch's manual will tell you how to enable Wi-Fi on it, so follow those instructions. But remember to make sure your Wi-Fi is as secure as it can be.
Your router or network switch will provide you with a default SSID (the name of your network), WiFi Key ( Your WiFi password), and login info. To keep things secure, it's best to change all of these.
Log on to your router using the router login info - depending on your router and your provider, you'll either need to do this via a web browser on your computer, or by going through the network settings as above.
• Change the SSID to a custom name to differentiate it from your neighbours' networks
• Change the Wi-Fi password to something unique, preferably including lower case letters, upper case letters, numbers, and symbols
• Change the router login password to something unique too - different from the Wi-Fi password, of course
• Pick the most advanced security tech - currently WPA2.
You may need to restart your computer to see the changes take effect.
