The Wi-Fi Alliance had hired Inter-brand to determine a name that was "a little catchier than ’IEEE 802.11b Direct Sequence’". Belanger also stated that Inter-brand invented Wi-Fi as a play on words with Hi-Fi (high fidelity)‚ and also created the Wi-Fi logo. The Wi-Fi Alliance initially used the advertising slogan‚ "The Standard for Wireless Fidelity” for

Wi-Fi‚ also known as “wireless fidelity” is a wireless technology based on the 802.11 network. Wi-Fi is an excellent technology that makes it possible for computers and personal digital assistants (PDA’s) to connect to the internet wirelessly. This technology makes it possible for users to access data online whenever they are near an access point‚ which is commonly referred to as a “hotspot”. While there are both advantages and disadvantages of Wi-Fi technology‚ I believe that the advantages outweigh

Wi-Fi is the system of wireless connecting devices‚ which use some radio waves that allow for the connection between the devices without expenses of the cumbersome cable or without requiring them for being facing the other. Wireless-Fidelity (Wi-Fi) network would provide the computer experts with option to remove the wired network (Wekhande‚ 2006). Badly secured Wi-Fi networks may be utilized for attacking the networks as well as corporations from inside‚ rather than about attempting to do that externally
