A wide area network is a telecommunications network that extends over a large geographical area for the primary purpose of computer networking. Wide area networks are often established with leased telecommunication circuits.   Advantages of a wide area network (WAN) Covers large geographical area: ... Centralized data: ... Get updated files and data: ... A lot of application to exchange messages: ... Sharing of software and resources: ... Global business: ... High bandwidth: ... Distribute workload and decrease travel charges Disadvantages Of WAN Technology -Setting up a network can be an expensive and complicated experience. The bigger the network the more expensive it is. -Security is a real issue when many different people have the ability to use information from other computers. Protection against hackers and viruses adds more complexity and expense. -Once set up, maintaining a network is a full-time job which requires network supervisors and technicians to be employed. -Informatio

what is LAN

A local area network is a computer network that interconnects computers within a limited area such as a residence, school, laboratory, university campus or office building. By contrast, a wide area network not only covers a larger geographic distance, but also generally involves leased telecommunication circuits Local Area Network Advantages Comprising a group of computers and/or mobile devices joined to a server, a  local area network  ( LAN ) helps businesses, schools and other organizations conduct daily operations. ... Compared to a wide  area network , a  LAN  connection is relatively inexpensive to set up and maintain. Disadvantages of LAN . High Setup Cost: The initial setup costs of installing  Local Area Networks  is high because there is special software required to make a server. Also, communication devices like an ethernet cable, switches, hubs, routers, cables are costly.
