About Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi (short for "wireless fidelity" and sometimes referred to as
wifi) is a term used for certain types of Wireless Local Area
Networks (WLAN). These device types use an 802.11 wireless
specification to transmit and receive wireless data. Wi-Fi
communication requires access to an existing and accessible
Wireless Access Point (WAP). These WAPs can either be
Open (unsecured) or Secured (requiring knowledge of the
router name and password).
