Computer

 Recommended set up

Here's a recommended setup considering a desktop and laptop system, power sources, connectivity, and backup options:


Desktop and Laptop Setup:

  • Use a desktop for primary tasks and a laptop for portability and backup.
  • Keep both devices updated with necessary software and synchronized data.

Power Bank:

  • Invest in a high-capacity power bank that can charge both your laptop and mobile devices. Useful for short outages or working on the go.

WiFi Connectivity:

  • Employ a reliable, dual-band WiFi router for fast and stable internet connectivity.
  • Consider a WiFi range extender if needed for broader coverage, ensuring connectivity throughout your workspace.

Power Outage Preparedness:

  • Connect your desktop to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to allow for a graceful shutdown during a power outage.
  • Regularly save your work and use cloud storage or an external hard drive for backups.

Generator:

  • Have a generator as a backup power source for more extended outages. Ensure it's well-maintained and has sufficient fuel.
  • Use surge protectors for both desktop and laptop setups when connected to the generator.

Outlets and Surge Protectors:

  • Install multiple surge protectors to safeguard devices from power surges.
  • Clearly label essential outlets connected to the generator for easy identification during outages.
