"If Ethernet moving into the home was the first big revolution in networking, Wireless LAN or IEEE 802.11b, is slated to be the next. With a range of just over 300 feet indoors at 11Mbps, a wireless network enables many computers to communicate without the need for wires. That saves a lot of time and money not having to run CAT 5 cable everywhere. Data is sent over the radio waves at a frequency of between 2400~2483.5 MHz using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) technology, and so a few security measures need to be taken to safeguard yourself. Belkin offer three essential components to make the move to a wireless network easy. The first and most important component is the Access Point."
