Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi is a wireless computer network
technology that lets you operate an
indoor broadband network. It can be
used to connect communicating devices
together and exchange data. Thanks
to Wi-Fi, it is possible to create local
networks and to connect so any type of
peripheral with a high-speed connection
at a distance of several tens of meters.
