Editing Talk:Suzumiya Haruhi:Volume5 The Day of Sagittarius (section)

=== LAN ===
LAN is short for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAN Local Area Network] which traditionally is restricted to computer networks within a building.  The configuration that the Denkensha has setup in the SOS Clubroom would either be a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_topology star] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_network mesh] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi Wi-Fi] network on the laptops and uses Haruhi's computer as a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Router Router] with a direct [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Router Ethernet] cable connection to the Denkensha server.  This makes ''Day of Sagittarius 3'' a multiplayer LAN game.
:There's no implication that it's wireless; quite the contrary: "they swiftly installed LAN cables for Haruhi's desktop PC and the remaining four notebook PCs". It seems more likely to me they would put a switch or hub in the literature club room, and connect all the computers to that, then run a cable from it to the computer club room; that's how I'd do it.
