3B. Web and Data Services

Wi-Fi communication requires access to an existing
and accessible Wireless Access Point (WAP). These
WAPs can either be Open (unsecured) as within most
Hot Spots, or Secured (requiring knowledge of the
Router name and password).

The Samsung Replenish™ is capable of
communication with devices using 802.11n speeds
(802.11n connections should support data rates of over
100 Mbps). 802.11n also offers better communication
ranges over earlier Wi-Fi standards due to increased
signal intensity. The Samsung Replenish™ is
backwards compatible with previous WAP
technologies (802.11b and 802.11g).
