| The solution is, go Wi-Fi with your office. And it does not cost much either.
|
| |
| Wi-Fi or wireless fidelity means the end of wires at your office or home, depending on where you are going to use it.
|
| |
| WiFi, allows one to get rid of the cables dangling from the back of your computers by accessing the Internet connections via radio waves.
|
| |
| The genesis of Wi-Fi lies in the technological development that allowed portable devices access to the internet at several locations by taking advantage of wireless communications.
|
| |
| Rather than being limited by cables and cords, personal computer users will have more flexibility both in and out of the office with portable computing devices.
|
| |
| Wi-Fi users can choose from three types of standard wireless solutions: IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11a, and IEEE 802.11g. The technology allows for personal computers to quickly establish connection with the Internet without having to attach to a network jack or a fixed position. The 802.11b standard supports up to 11 Mbps of bandwidth per access point.

| |
| If you were to Wi-Fi your office, it does not mean you can access other devices like a printer on the network wirelessly.
|
| |
| Till date no Wi-Fi solution is available in the market for enabling wireless connectivity to the printer.
|
| |
| To Wi-Fi enable your office you need three pieces of gear. A Wi-Fi card that will reside in your computer, an access point, and if you want to access the internet then a modem.
|
| |
| In India there are more than a couple of companies that can get your office or home Wi-Fi enabled. Some of leading names are Dax Networks, Sify Ltd, and Convergent communications.
|
| |
| A 802.11b-enabled (WiFi) card is a must in your notebook computer or personal digital assistant (PDA).
|
| |
| While many newer computers and PDAs come with wireless cards already installed, older computers can often accept a wireless card.
|
| |
| Just check your computer manual or call your computer manufacturer for more information. An access point is a hardware device located in an optimum location, which acts as a centre point, and is able to provide wireless network access to surrounding areas.
