2More about WLAN
WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) is a radio technology that allows
networks and access to the Internet to be provided without cable con-
nections. This allows multiple users to share one wireless Internet con-
nection.
2.1 Standards
The WLAN standards IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b,
IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11n (on the basis of the pre-
liminary draft 2.0 of the standard) and IEEE 802.11i were
developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic En-
gineers (IEEE).
The standards IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g
and IEEE 802.11n define the transmission rate within a
wireless LAN. The IEEE 802.11i standard is a security stan-
dard.
Standards for the Throughput Rate
Data Throughput The FRITZ!Box supports your choice of the standards
IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g and the proprietary standard
IEEE 802.11g++. WLAN adapters based on one or more of
the standards listed can be used for WLAN connections
with the FRITZ!Box.
If you use a FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick from AVM as a WLAN
adapter with the FRITZ!Box, you can also establish WLAN
connections using the IEEE 802.11g++ standard.
The throughputs listed differentiate between gross and
net transmission rates. The net speed describes the trans-
mission rate of the user data.
