Access Point
Generally, access points wirelessly connect networks together, such
as your network with the Internet. Or, by configuring multiple clients
such as laptops, each using their own access point, you are able to
create your own private wireless Ad-Hoc network.
LAN
Local Area Network. A local area network provides a full-time,
high-bandwidth connection over a limited area such as a home,
building, or campus. Ethernet is the most widely used LAN standard.
