Setting Up a Home or Office Network can Make Things So Much Easier
Just about every office and most
homes now have more than one computer in them. Now you just need to get
them to communicate with each other, so you can have each computer specialize
in one area. One computer can handle all your documents, while another
might be for photo editing or games. With networking, you allow each computer
to best utilize it's own strengths, and share devices such as printers.

Here's a site that has a pretty good guide for setting up an network. You'll want to have a router, which will allow you to split an internet connection, so multiple computers can be connected at the same time. This is much better than a switch, which will constantly connect and disconnect the internet connection for each computer. It may seem like they are both connected, but it is much slower than a router.
If you plan on using a wireless network (which utilizes a wireless router and wireless network cards on each computer), or if you want to use a network for important file sharing, you should definately do a little research into network security. Here's a small website about file sharing security.
WiFi is definately the popular way to do wireless networking. This website explains more about what WiFi is. Just remember that wireless networks can be breached by anyone with a wireless network card and the right tools unless you secure it properly. You may want to consult a professional to make sure your network is secure.
