transmitting on air? Spectrum technology, it has the inherent security
feature of scrambling. On the software side, WLAN
offers the encryption function (WEP) to enhance
security and access control.
What is WEP? WEP is Wired Equivalent Privacy, a data privacy
mechanism based on a 64-bit or 128-bit shared key
algorithm, as described in the IEEE 802.11 standard.
What is infrastructure
mode?
When a wireless network is set to infrastructure
mode, the wireless network is configured to
communicate with a wired network through a
wireless access point.
What is roaming? Roaming is the ability of a portable computer user to
communicate continuously while moving freely
throughout an area greater than that covered by a
single access point. Before using the roaming
function, the workstation must make sure that it is
the same channel number with the access point of
dedicated coverage area.
What is ISM band? The FCC and their counterparts outside of the U.S.
have set aside bandwidth for unlicensed use in the
ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) band.
Spectrum in the vicinity of 2.4 GHz, in particular, is
being made available worldwide. This presents a
truly revolutionary opportunity to place convenient
high-speed wireless capabilities in the hands of
users around the globe.
What is the IEEE
802.11g standard?
Approved in June, 2003 as an IEEE standard for
wireless local area networks ( WLAN s), 802.11g
offers wireless transmission over relatively short
distances at up to 54
megabit s per second (Mbps)
compared with the 11 megabits per second of the
802.11b ( Wi-Fi ) standard. Like 802.11b, 802.11g
operates in the 2.4 GHz range and is thus
compatible with it.
What is the IEEE
802.11n standard?
Is an IEEE standard for wireless local area networks
( WLAN s), 802.11n offers wireless transmission over
relatively short distances at up to 600 megabits
(more bandwith 40Mhz instead of 20Mhz and more
flux) per second (Mbps) compared with the 54/11
