802.11b has a maximum throughput of 11 Mbit/s, however a significant percentage of this bandwidth is used for communications overhead; in practice the maximum throughput is about 5.5 Mbit/s.
Security In 2001, a group from the University of California at Berkeley presented an paper describing a weakness in 802.11b described by Fluhrer, Mantin, and Shamir entitled "Weaknesses in the Key Scheduling Algorithm of RC4".
802.11g hardware can transfer data at up to 54 Mbit/s, or at 11Mbit/s if operating with 802.11b devices.

 IEEE 802.11 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The spectral mask for 802.11b requires that the signal be attenuated by at least 30 dB from its peak energy at ±11 MHz from the center frequency, and attenuated by at least 50 dB from its peak energy at ±22 MHz from the center frequency.
Channels 10 and 11 are the only channels which work in all parts of the world, because Spain hasn't licensed channels 1 to 9 for 802.11b operation.
Although the statement that channels 1, 6, and 11 are "non-overlapping" is incomplete, the 1, 6, 11 guideline has merit.

 Dictionary and Encyclopedia - "Number Entries" Listings
Consequently, situations arise such as the fact that 802.11b channels 1 through 11 are used in the United States, but 1 through 14 are in use in Japan.
It wasn't until the introduction of the 802.11b standards (allowing data rates up to 11 Mbps) that Wi-Fi (as we know it) was really born.
According to Paul Nikolich, chair of the IEEE 802 committee, "A test specification is particularly important for 802.11 given the complexity of the protocol and the challenges of wireless test.

 IT Rolls Out Wireless LANs Despite Insecurity - Computerworld
BMW AG in Munich, Germany, also uses 802.11b on the factory floor and has relied heavily on site surveys to prevent access points from bleeding to nearby buildings or parking areas, says Daniel Lange, director of IT strategy.
Lange says that since the first of the year, BMW has discovered no additional security holes in 802.11b, although there have been more articles describing its deficiencies, in addition to a broader discussion of its flaws.
BMW does a lot to keep security high, including sending an IT inspector into the homes of BMW workers to see how they use home-based wireless LANs for work, a key point of vulnerability, according to analysts.

At BMW Group, which has 200 802.11b Wi-Fi access points at plants in Munich, the IT staff handles the process with help from equipment vendors and some outside support staff, says Daniel Lange, IT strategist with BMW.
At BMW, such deployments are discouraged because of the limited 802.11b bandwidth, about 5M to 6M bit/sec, and because of security concerns.
Later this year BMW will formalize a process that will help business users evaluate the need for wireless before they formulate their IT requests, Lange says.

 IEEE 802
As mentioned in chapter 2.1.2 also the data rates of 8 Mbit/s and 11 Mbit/s with the DSSS are possible to achieve while using WLAN that supports the standard IEEE 802.11b [6, 12].
The first phase standard was followed by an extension IEEE 802.11b, which supports data rates up to 11 Mbit/s with the radio frequency technology direct sequence spread spectrum.
DSSS supports bigger data rates (up to 11 Mbit/s) and FHSS equipment are usually inexpensive compared to DSSS equipment.

 What is 802.11B
However when devices move beyond the optimal range for 11 Mbps operation, or if substantial interference is present, 802.11b devices will transmit at lower speeds, falling back to 5.5, 2, and 1 Mbps.
With 802.11b WLANs, mobile users can get Ethernet levels of performance, throughput, and availability.
For example, if the network requirement is for high performance (5.5 Mbps or 11 Mbps) and complete coverage, long range at lower network speeds (1 Mbps and 2 Mbps) may make it difficult to employ a channel reuse pattern while maintaining high performance.

Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) is one of the modulation techniques provided for by the IEEE 802.11 and the one chosen by the 802.11 Working Group for the widely used IEEE 802.11b devices.

IEEE 802.11g operates in the same frequency band as 802.11b, and is therefore backwards compatible with certain older Wi-Fi hardware.
The first widespread commercial use of the 802.11b standard for networking was made by Apple Computer under the trademark AirPort.
The original version of the standard IEEE 802.11 released in 1997 and sometimes called "802.1y" specifies two data rates of 1 and 2 Megabits per second (Mbit/s) to be transmitted via infrared (IR) signals or in the Industrial Scientific Medical frequency band at 2.4 GHz.

This standard is continuously updated by means of amendments such as IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b etc. Periodically a new version of the IEEE 802.11 standard is produced combining the previous version of the standard and all amendments published up to that date.
These extensions have been largely obviated by the development of 802.11g, which has data rates up to 54 Mbit/s and is backwards-compatible with 802.11b.

 IEEE 802.11
IEEE is the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers, and the use of equipment based on the 802.11b standard is becoming a very inexpensive and popular way for computers to communicate over radio, especially over short distances such as within an office building.
IEEE 802.11b RF transmission conforms to FCC Part 15 rules for unlicensed operation of low-power devices, so this topic is somewhat analogous to discussing the design and usage of cordless telephones.
Because of the popularity of 802.11 equipment, the FCC is soliciting comments for future spectrum allocation for similar specifications, and the ARRL has formed a working group for the use of 802.11 specifications under Part 97 rules (with corresponding modifications such as the possible use of higher power).

Another extension to the standard (802.11b) defines 11 Mbps and 5.5 Mbps data rates (in addition to the 1 and 2Mbps rates) utilizing an extension to DSSS called High Rate DSSS (HR/DSSS).
The 802.11 MAC layer is forced to handle station mobility in a fashion that is transparent to the upper layers of the 802 LAN stack.
For compatibility purposes, the 802.11 MAC must appear to the upper layers of the network as a ‘standard’ 802 LAN.
