Although almost every home networking vendor now makes a router with integrated wireless capability, there are times when all you need is a stand-alone 802.11b access point.
Even when setting up a new network, you may want to divorce the access point from the router, since dedicated routers are generally more feature-rich than their wireless-ready counterparts.
This is not a fatal limitation, since the access point is generally configured at installation time and in most cases left alone, but it does mean that you can't make subsequent configuration changes from other machines without installing the utility again.

 Network access point - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Network access point (NAP) is the original term for the data communications facilities built in the early days of the Internet to provide on-ramp access to higher-speed Internet links (which were typically transcontinental or intercontinental in extent).
A single NAP might serve a geographic area as extensive as a state.
It was desirable for reasons of network efficiency that traffic heading for the NAP from different university networks be aggregated.

Wiring is still needed to connect a wireless network access point to the hardwired network.
Each one varies in the exact nature of its connections, and while they all connect to the same network and have access to the same information superhighway, they are not directly compatible with one another.

A dial-up networking profile enables computer-to-network connectivity through a modem, while a LAN access networking profile enables a direct point-to-point connection between two computers or between a computer and a network access point.
Although dial-up networking usually occurs through a built-in modem and a land-line phone line, dial-up networking over IrDA offers a wireless variation of the same scenario: the computer uses a mobile phone as the modem and its wireless wide area network connectivity in place of land-line connectivity.

 NSAP address - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Network Service Access Point (NSAP) addresses, defined in ISO/IEC 8348, are identifying labels for network endpoints used in OSI networking.
Routing equipment must translate NSAP addresses to NSPAs (Network Service Point Addresses) to route OSI packets; VCI (Virtual Circuit Identifier) numbers are an example of a datalink layer NSPAs in ATM; when OSI packets are sent encapsulated in IP packets the IP address is considered an NSPA.
They are usually assigned by the Network Management/NOC personnel and agreed upon within an organisation to be unique (to that organisation and based on geographical location using country code phone prefixes) and are REQUIRED before any operational connectivity is established at the commissioning stage.
