And front end is installed on the local drive of each machine. Whereas, the back-end must contains tables with the user’s. Along with that the back end also stores shared network drive.

This portioning of the access database file proves itself beneficial when the application is to be used by multiple clients. Besides this technique is also very helpful for easy accessibility and enabling users to enter/edit data in front-end.

Chances of MS Access Database corruption also diminishes as back-end is completely secure.

Avoid MAC and Windows on Same Network: 

Availability of both Windows and Mac OS users on the network; leads to problem.MAC application creates more amount of traffic over the closed loop. The traffic increases when transferring of graphic files or printing done.

In order to increase the working speed in a closed network, you need to keep Mac and Windows users separately.  Try to keep the database traffic different from graphic traffic. Allow the administrative workstations to get connected to the server along with a shared database through local switches.

Be Attentive While Using Wireless Networks:

Using Wi-Fi, multiple clients could abruptly cut off the connections. This leads to MS Access Database corruption when someone is writing to it simultaneously. Well the issue is not when the user is just reading the database but they need to do modification then it can be an issue. So, try to avoid using wi-fi when it is not needed.
