A wireless local area network (WLAN) is a cellular computer network that transmits and receives data with radio signals instead of wires.
Wireless LANs are used increasingly in both home and ofce environments, and public areas such as airports, coffee shops and universities.
Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate more efciently. Increased mobility and the
absence of cabling and other xed infrastructure have proven to be benecial for many users.
Under many circumstances, it may be desirable for mobile network devices to link to a conventional Ethernet LAN in order to use servers,
printers or an Internet connection supplied through the wired LAN. A Wireless Router is a device used to provide this link.
