Wireless Internet everywhere

Description

Wireless Internet has become a public hype. While more cables are disappearing, WiFi arises as its invisible replacement.

Enablers

Ease of use

Instead of laying cables in your living room, study room and kidsroom, it is much easier to have one wireless hub which sends out a signal connect your computer with the Internet

Mobility

Having the freedom to access the Internet in your house, anytime and anywhere you like is what more and more laptop users demand.

Inhibitors

Limited Range

The range of WiFi for the 802.11b or 802.11g standards are only 45 meters in doors and still depends on the level of interference.

Interference

Interference of a closed or encrypted access point with other open access points on the same or a neighboring channel can prevent access to the open access points by others in the area. This can pose a problem in high-density areas such as large apartment buildings where many residents are operating Wi-Fi access points.
