Question

Would the information be intercepted while transmitting
on air?

Answer

WLAN features two-fold protection in security. On the
hardware side, as with Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
technology, it has the inherent security feature of scrambling.
On the software side, WLAN offers the encryption function
(WEP) to enhance security and access control.

Question

What is the IEEE 802.11g standard?

Answer

Approved in June, 2003 as an

IEEE

standard for wireless local

area networks (

WLAN

s), 802.11g offers wireless transmission

over relatively short distances at up to 54

megabit

s per second

(Mbps) compared with the 11 megabits per second of the

802.11b

(

Wi-Fi

) standard. Like 802.11b, 802.11g operates in

the 2.4

GHz

range and is thus compatible with it.

Question

What is WEP?

Answer

WEP is Wired Equivalent Privacy, a data privacy mechanism
based on a 64-bit or 128-bit shared key algorithm, as
described in the IEEE 802.11 standard.

Question

What is infrastructure mode?

Answer

When a wireless network is set to infrastructure mode, the
wireless network is configured to communicate with a wired
network through a wireless access point.


Question

What is ISM band?

Answer

The FCC and their counterparts outside of the U.S. have set
aside bandwidth for unlicensed use in the ISM (Industrial,
Scientific and Medical) band. Spectrum in the vicinity of 2.4
GHz, in particular, is being made available worldwide. This
presents a truly revolutionary opportunity to place convenient
high-speed wireless capabilities in the hands of users around
