description A method for selecting and configuring a network resource, out of a plurality of network resources, for use with a computer system client. The method includes the step of determining what network resources reside within a network. The respective attributes of the network resources are then assessed. A determination is then made as to which of the network resources best corresponds to a desired attribute. Configuration software for the best corresponding network resource is then installed on the client and the best corresponding network resource is prepared for use by the client. The installation of configuration software can include installing a driver for the best corresponding network resource. A map showing a location of the best corresponding network resource with respect to the client can be accessed. The determination of which of the network resources best corresponds to the desired attribute can be dynamically updated as a location of the client changes.
