Wireless (Wi-Fi)

Access points provide wireless access to a wired Ethernet network. An access point plugs into a hub, switch, or wired router and sends out wireless signals. This enables computers and devices to connect to a wired network wirelessly. You can move from one location to another and continue to have wireless access to a network. When you connect to the Internet wirelessly using a public wireless network in an airport, hotel or in public, you are usually connecting through an access point. Some routers are equipped with a wireless access point capability, in this case you don’t need a wireless access Point.
