Infrastructure networking has the following advantages over ad-hoc networking:
•
Extended range
Each wireless LAN computer within the range of the access point can communicate with other wireless
LAN computers within range of the access point.
•
Roaming
The access point enables a wireless LAN computer to move through a building and still be connected to
the LAN.
•
Wired to wireless LAN connectivity
The access point bridges the gap between wireless LANs and their wired counterparts.
This concludes the first chapter. The next chapter deals with the hardware installation of the Wireless Router.
