    A LAN connects devices within a small local area like a home, office, or school and allows for sharing of resources. A WAN connects devices over a large geographical area like a city or country using technologies like leased lines or satellites. The main difference between LANs and WANs is that LANs cover a small area while WANs can connect devices over a much larger geographical range.

    A Local Area Network (LAN) is a network that connects devices within a limited area such as

    a home, office, or school. These networks are typically owned and managed by a single
    organization and allow for efficient sharing of resources such as printers and file servers
    within the local area.

    A Wide Area Network (WAN), on the other hand, connects devices over a large geographical
    area such as a city or country. These networks are typically owned and managed by multiple
    organizations and use technologies such as leased lines or satellite links to connect devices
    over long distances.

    The main difference between LANs and WANs is the geographical area they cover. LANs
    are limited to a small area while WANs can cover a much larger area.
