Introduction to Wireless Networking

An AP extends the capability of an existing Ethernet network to devices 
on a wireless network. Wireless devices can 

•  

connect to a single Access Point, or 

•  

move between multiple Access Points located within the same 

vicinity. As wireless clients move from one coverage cell to another, 
the devices maintain network connectivity.
