Depends on what you mean by "close geographical range." This can mean anywhere from two computers within a house, two computers in a town or even two computers in the same country compared to two computers that are connected between continents.
For a house that would be:
*LAN (Local Area Network)
*VPN (Virtual Private Network)
*PAN (Private Area Network); This would include bluetooth
For a town that could be:
*LAN
*WAN (Wide Area Network)
Hope this helped.

A personal area network or PAN consists of personal devices at close range such as a cell phone, PDA, and notebook computer in communication. This computer network is used to transmit data among devices.
You can have as many users you want on an enterprise network provided you have the ip address range for any number of applications. This can be unlimited if properly designed by using sub net addressing or by using a deferred addressing techniques. However care must be taken and follow strict designed rules otherwise there can be clash of addressing standards.
Geographical range refers to the area or region where a particular species, population, or ecosystem is found. It encompasses the geographical distribution of a species or population, including the specific habitats or environments they occupy within that range. Understanding the geographical range of a species is important for conservation efforts and biodiversity studies.
Yes, a Local Area Network (LAN) covers a confined area, typically within a single building or a group of adjacent buildings. It is designed for short-distance communication and connects devices like computers, printers, and servers within a limited geographical range. This confined scope allows for high data transfer speeds and lower latency compared to wider networks like WANs.

To create a functional network with a switch you will need a DHCP server either from a router plugged into the switch or from an actual server that has DHCP installed on it. The function a switch brings to a network is to provide more ports for additional computers, when multiple machines are plugged into a network they need addresses in order to communicate. A DHCP server (from a router or traditional server) will provide an IP address to multiple machines thus assigning addresses that the computers can use to communicate on said network. A home router such as some made by Linksys or D-link should be sufficient to provide 12 computers with ip addresses. Just plug the router into the switch with the 12 computers and set the DHCP range for atleast 12 IP addresses.
The price range for buying computers can range from a couple hundred dollars to thousands of dollars. Most computers bought today fall into the 400-800 dollar range.
Using NAT (NETWORK ADDRESS TRANSLATION) can make it possible to connect to Internet with Public IP Address at the Internet Gateway while Computers internally will use Private range of IP Addresses.
The range of a population or a species is defined as the geographical area where the population or species is found.
