Nt1310 Unit 1 Research Paper
This paper is going to describe some components that you may see when working in either a wired or wireless network. We will look into each component and determine if its ran by another component within and how it operates. We will also provide a base cost or average cost for this type of device/component.
A wireless router is a device that is connected to your ISP (Internet Service Provider) that enables you to broadcast or serve wireless networking within a area. If you want to provide or have wireless networking within your home you will need one of these devices. A good average cost for a wireless router, would be around $50 dollars.

With computers and IT exploding as it has over the past few years, so has the individuals that try to gain access to your machine. A firewall is a device that applies the security to your network. They come in all different sizes for different setups. Firewalls have two connections. One is to the computer/network and the other is connected to your Internet connection. Firewalls have ranged in price from about $50 dollar to over $3000 dollars. A good average for small size networks would be around $300 to $400 dollars.
The next component that we will look at is a wireless access point. The wireless access point basically extends the network out via wireless. If you a wireless router you most likely will not need an access point? Access point as normally used in large area networks covering large areas. The average cost for a Wireless Access Point is around $600 dollars per Access
