Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) is a generic term that refers to the IEEE 802.11 communications standard for Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). Wi-Fi uses radio technologies like IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11n to transmit and receive data at high speeds wirelessly. A Wi-Fi network works by creating a hotspot using an access point connected to the internet, which wireless enabled devices can then connect to within a range of 100 to 300 feet. Wi-Fi networks can be implemented in either an ad-hoc or infrastructure mode and have advantages like mobility, ease of installation, flexibility and cost savings over
