Answer:

The two common types of networks are :

  • Local Area Network (LAN)
  • Wide Area Network (WAN)

LAN is best for particular situation means where speed, cost of installation as ease of setup is concerned as LAN covers limited area. ex school, labs etc.,

And WAN is best for particular situation means where area to be covered more, and fault tolerance is less in WAN.

So it totally depend on situation.
