Group of Computers and devices can be interconnected by communications channels that facilitate communications among users and allow users to share resources. Networking is therefore a very useful tool in the home, office, large institutions, in general, the world at large. Internet is the largest form of working through which access to the world can be made possible. Some gadgets are necessary to make networking realizable, ranging from the indoor unit components to Outdoor equipment; hence, we discuss the VSAT installation. This project is basically an introduction into working and VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) installation. It outlines the uses of network, introducing hardware and software requirement for both the VSAT installation and networking. It also outlines the differences between small network, large network and the internet. The Internet today is a widespread information infrastructure, the initial prototype of what is often called the National (Global or Galactic) information infrastructure. Its history is complex and involves many aspects-technological, organizational and community. And its influence reaches not only to the technical field of computer communication, but throughout society as we move toward increasing use of online tools at accomplish electronic publishing and advertising, electronic commerce, information acquisition or research and community operations.
