Wi-Fi Configuration

Wi-Fi is a branded standard for wireless connecting
electronic devices. A Wi-Fi device, such as a personal
computer, video game console, smartphone, or digital audio
player can connect to the Internet via a wireless network
access point. The Wi-Fi HotSpot has a range of about
45 meters (150 feet) indoors and a greater range outdoors.
Multiple overlapping access points can cover large areas.
