LAN Settings
Share360 was originally developed for usage over LANs (Local Area Network). A LAN is considered to be the most secure and helps enable wide usage of Share360.
A LAN supplies networking capability to a group of computers in close proximity to each other such as in an office building, a school, or a home. LANs are useful for sharing files, providing access to printers and access to the Net (among other things).
Most LANs are built with relatively inexpensive hardware such as Ethernet cable and network interface cards (although wireless and other options exist). Specialized operating system software is also often used to configure a LAN. For example, some flavors of Microsoft Windows -- including Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000, and Windows ME -- come with a package called Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) that support controlled access to resources on the network.
