    Don't expect a revolution or a vast change in the way you use wireless. The IEEE 802.11ac standard, set to be in draft form by 2011, will mainly work with the current technology powering 802.11a. The new standard will continue to work on the 5.0Ghz band, but will provide larger channels for data throughput. Whereas current technology uses 20Mhz-wide channels, 802.11ac will be using either 40Mhz or 80Mhz-wide (and possibly 160Mhz) channels to deliver data. It's the equivalent of adding a wide-mouth tab to your beer can, so your files will be able to flow more freely on your home network come 2012.…

    A wireless local area network, or LAN is a flexible data communications system implemented as an augmentation to, or an alternative for a, wired local area network. These networks rely on electromagnetic airwaves to transmit and receive over a defined area, usually a few hundred feet. (Yahoo-wireless) In most cases, a wireless transmitter will be connected directly to a wired land network using Ethernet cables. Once the network feed has been connected to the transmitter, and a constant power supply is established, a steady stream of radio, or infrared waves with be produced (both are electromagnetic waves). The vast majority of wireless LAN systems tend to rely on radio waves as the carries for their signals, because infrared waves tend to have a shorter distance at which they are able to transmit, and are more easily interrupted. Radio waves, or radio carriers as they are referred to, transfer data through modulations of the carrier signal. The addition of data to a radio carrier causes the signal to occupy more than a single frequency. Once data is imprinted onto the radio signal it is a simple reversal of the transmitting process that allows the information to be decoded by a receiving station. (Rho Wireless)…

    Wi-Fi Is Not a Barrier

    Now I would like to list the major hardware components that are used to create a wireless network. I will start with the most important piece, the adapter. They are formally called Network Interface Cards or NIC’s. I deal with these things quite a lot in my job in the Army but they are not Wireless NIC’s. I use 4-port Ethernet NIC’s. The Adapter is what allows the computer send and data over the radio waves instead of through a wire. The rest of the wireless equipment that I will list is not required but they can be used to make your wireless network larger, faster, or more productive. The wireless router is used just for that, routing and packet switching on a wireless network. It will allow me to access my wife’s computer without ever connecting a cable as long as both systems are connected to the router. My Wireless router also serves as my access point to the network provider. The access point is where your wireless signal is turned into a digital signal and sent through a cable. The last two pieces are antennas and repeaters. Antennas and repeaters allow you to extend the range of your wireless network. First you place an antenna to attempt to reach all the client systems within your area of coverage. If you have outlying systems that are not within the gain of the antennae you can use a repeater. It acts as a relay from your computer system through the repeater and on to the main antennae for access to the network.…
