Wireless Access Point
Introduction
The IEEE 802.11b Wireless Access Point allows you to put your
Wireless LAN into the infrastructure mode. In the infrastructure
mode, the Wireless Access Point converts airwave data into wired
Ethernet data, acting as a bridge between the wired LAN and wireless
clients. Connecting multiple Access Points via a wired Ethernet
backbone can further extend the wireless network coverage. As a
mobile computing device moves out of the range of one access point,
it moves into the range of another. As a result, wireless clients can
freely roam from one access point domain to another and still
maintain seamless connection to the network.
