Network interface Card (NIC) Wireless NIC By Josh Morcombe and Daniel Barrie

What is a NIC? The Network interface card is what gives someone the ability to communicate using a wired connection (e.g. Ethernet) or a wireless connection (e.g. Wi-Fi) Also known as: a network interface controller network adapter A Local Area Network (LAN) adapter

When/how is it used? One NIC can handle a number of Ethernet connections by attaching a switch or router to it Offices would often use Ethernet connections for workstations and desktops Ethernet cables are easier to configure than wireless cards, and they can provide better connections and work efficiency in certain scenarios
