When creating a LAN, we generally have three options available to us: implement a wired network, implement a wireless network, or, more commonly, implement a hybrid of both types.

For connectivity to remote networks, a routing device or default gateway would be required, with the exception of Figure 2.22 (Wireless routers section). I have omitted these from the images for clarity.
