There are four main types of networks: personal area networks (PAN), local area networks (LAN), metropolitan area networks (MAN), and wide area networks (WAN). PAN connects devices in close proximity to an individual. LAN spans a small area like a single building. MAN interconnects users over a larger region than a LAN but smaller than a WAN. WAN covers the largest geographical area and includes public and corporate networks across long distances.
