Why the differences among the 802.11 standards?
Thanks to the convenience of surfing the world wide web while sitting at home, in your Lazyboy recliner in your family room, online activities are extremely popular with many folks today. The term is 802.11 wireless and that is the standard it goes by.
The technology that enables us to get to that point includes the use of communication standards that have been in use for a long time. First, the standard in favor was 802.11b. This was in wide use until the faster standard of 802.11a came along. The latest standard, still in use today is 802.11g and it combines the best of both previous standards. Although it may sound complicated, these communication standards offer the speed and effectiveness of your internet connection.
With today’s speedy computers and fast internet connections, we can appreciate the freedom of internet access and learn about the world from an entirely new perspective.
