Wired Internet, for the most part, is already losing its value, because now you rarely find a family where, in addition to a stationary computer, there is no laptop, tablet, smartphones, PDA and other joys of our time that make it possible to use the Internet. Wi-Fi connection gives you freedom. How it works?
It is necessary
- - Wi-Fi network adapter;
- - a computer;
- - any devices that support the ability to connect to the Internet.
Instructions
Step 1
Buy a Wi-Fi network adapter if your computer or laptop doesn't have built-in hardware. The absence of an adapter is possible if office equipment was released a long time ago, when Wi-Fi standards were not yet widespread. The network adapter can be presented in various modifications - from removable equipment plugged into a PCMCIA connector or a USB port, which are outputs for high-speed connection. Devices that fit into the card slot are also possible. Before buying, you should make sure that the software and hardware are compatible, which will be a kind of guarantee of a reliable connection via Wi-Fi. There are different routers that use several standard options, the most popular is 802.11g, these devices are recognized by consumers as the fastest and most reliable. A router is required to connect various equipment to each other and to connect to the Internet.
Step 2
Make sure you have at least one access point and one client. The access point transmits the SSID, identifier through special signals, and the client recognizes the data and determines the connectivity. Usually the SSID is named by the manufacturer of the equipment. The ability to connect devices to the network at a distance depends on the power of the router, some of the devices broadcast up to 30 meters in diameter, but the signal quality can be interfered with by a wall or an ordinary door.
Step 3
The connection security in the new router has well-known parameters, therefore, after purchasing the device, you need to change the settings so that access to the connection is limited to the users for whom the broadcast is intended.
