	Wireless network - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A wireless network is a telephone or computer network that uses radio for the carrier or physical layer.
		The military found use for this wireless technology is configured the wireless signals to send data that was heavily encrypted making it difficult to be cracked which proved to be especially useful during World War II for the Army and Navy (History of Wireless).
		Wireless networks in terms of internet connections, are typically slower than those that are directly connected through an Ethernet cable.

	Wireless mesh network - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In a traditional wireless network where laptops connect to a single access point, each laptop has to share a fixed pool of bandwidth.
		However, one feature of wireless mesh networks is that an operator need only deploy a minimal base station infrastructure, and allow the users themselves to extend the network.
		Since this wireless Internet infrastructure has the potential to be much cheaper than the traditional type, many wireless community network groups are already creating wireless mesh networks.

	Wireless community network - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.tamu.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07)
		Wireless community networks or wireless community projects are the largely hobbyist-led development of interlinked computer networks using wireless LAN technologies, taking advantage of the recent development of cheap, standardised 802.11b (Wi-Fi) devices to build growing clusters of linked, citywide networks.
		The key to using standard wireless networking devices designed for short-range use for multi-kilometre linkups is the use of high-gain antennas.
		Wireless Nomad ISP Co-op is a user-owned and operated ISP running DSL and deploying WiFi mesh networks and WiFi LAN networks for community access in Toronto, Canada.

	Securing Your Wireless Network
		A wireless network can connect computers in different parts of your home or business without a tangle of cords and enable you to work on a laptop anywhere within the network’s range.
		To set up the wireless network, you connect the access point to a wireless router that broadcasts a signal through the air, sometimes as far as several hundred feet.
		The downside of a wireless network is that, unless you take certain precautions, anyone with a wireless-ready computer can use your network.

	Axis Communications - Wireless networks
		For example, it could be useful in a building where the installation of cables would not be possible without damaging the interior, or within a facility such as retail outlet where there is a need to move the camera to new locations on a regular basis without having to pull new cables every time.
		But as the wireless network bandwidth is limited compared with the wired one, the goal should always be to use wired networks whenever possible.
		Due to the nature of wireless communications, everyone with a wireless device present within the area covered by the network will be able to participate in the network and use shared services; hence the need for security.

	Wireless Network
		Wireless networks are based on the IEEE 802.11 standards.
		A basic wireless network consists of multiple stations communicating with radios that broadcast in either the 2.4GHz or 5GHz band (though this varies according to the locale and is also changing to enable communication in the 2.3Ghz and 4.9Ghz ranges).
		Indicates that the network is using short preambles (defined in 802.11b High Rate/DSSS PHY, short pre- amble utilizes a 56 bit sync field in contrast to a 128 bit field used in long preamble mode).

	Securing your Wireless Network
		These days wireless networking products are so ubiquitous and inexpensive that just about anyone can set up a WLAN in a matter of minutes with less than $100 worth of equipment.
		This widespread use of wireless networks means that there may be dozens of potential network intruders lurking within range of your home or office WLAN.
		If you find that some of your wireless devices only support WEP encryption (this is often the case with non-PC devices like media players, PDAs, and DVRs), avoid the temptation to skip encryption entirely because in spite of it's flaws, using WEP is still far superior to having no encryption at all.
