A transceiver joins two network segments together.
Transceivers can also be used to join a segment that uses
one medium to a segment that uses a different medium.
On a 10BASE-5 network, the transceiver connects the
network adapter or other network device to the medium.
Transceivers also can be used on 10BASE-2 or 10BASE-T
networks to attach devices with AUI ports.

WEP is widely used as the basic security protocol in Wi-Fi
networks, which secures data transmissions using 64-bit
or 128-bit encryption.
Windows is a graphical user interface for workstations
that use DOS.
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access ) is used to improve the
security of Wi-Fi networks, replacing the current WEP
standard. It uses its own encryption, Temporal Key
Integrity Protocol (TKIP), to secure data during
transmission.
