Grow your business network Updated December 19, 2005 Your business is growing, and your network needs to grow with it. You can expand your basic network either by upgrading your current equipment or adding more features, or both. If your office space is expanding physically, MIMO routers and adapters can help your network expand to the far corners of the building. Or if a lot of your employees are on the road, a VPN router will let them access the office network safely and securely, wherever they are. However you grow your network, think of it as an investment.
