This article is from the Amiga Networking FAQ, by Richard Norman with numerous contributions by others.
WAN -- Wide Area Network
The full blown WAN connection is the FASTEST, most flexible and the most
expensive. This type of connection is most useful for a group such as a business
with a LAN, since this type of connection provides a router at your site.
Generally connection speeds start at 56 Kbit/sec and go up. Contact a WAN provider
for details.
A full blown WAN connection also requires a great deal of expertise to manage. You
must learn security, configuration, and troubleshooting techniques. Some WAN
providers will provide these services for additional fees.
The setup of a WAN connection is WELL beyond the scope of an FAQ, but there are
numerous courses and books available if you wish to do the job yourself. Also the
documentation that comes with the software and hardware is mandatory reading.
