Wireless connections

Wireless connection is the transfer of data without the use of cables by means of radio waves only.

Depending on the frequency used for data transmission, the area covered, or the type of the

device used for data transfer, the following categories of wireless networks may be available to

you:

Wireless LAN

A wireless local area network covers a relatively small geographic area, such as an office building

or a house. Devices based on the 802.11 standards can connect to this network.

Wireless WAN

A wireless wide area network covers a broader geographic area. Cellular networks are used for

data transmission, and access is provided by a wireless service carrier.

Bluetooth

One of a number of technologies used to create a wireless personal area network.

Bluetooth

can

connect devices a short distance from one another, and is commonly used for connecting

peripheral devices to a computer, transferring data between hand-held devices and PC, or

remotely controlling and communicating with devices such as mobile phones.

WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access)

This long-range wireless data transmission technology based on the 802.16 standard, is expected

to provide the user a "last mile" broadband connectivity similar to that provided by cable or ADSL,

but without the need to physically connect a cable to the PC.
