Wi-Fi is a technology that allows electronic devices to connect to a wireless local area network (WLAN) for internet access and communication. It uses radio waves to transmit data between devices, typically within a range of several hundred feet. Wi-Fi operates under the IEEE 802.11 standards, which encompass various protocols to ensure compatibility and data transmission efficiency. Commonly utilized in homes, offices, and public spaces, Wi-Fi enables users to connect laptops, smartphones, tablets, and other devices to the internet wirelessly, facilitating seamless connectivity and mobility. The term “Wi-Fi” is often used interchangeably with “wireless internet” or “wireless networking.”
