Applications Wireless LAN products are easy to install and highly efficient. The following list describes some of the many applications made possible through the power and flexibility of a wireless LAN. 1. Work from Home Computers and high-speed Internet access mean new, better-paying choices for people who want the flexibility and convenience of careers that don't require an office-building cubicle, Reference Article: 4 real jobs you can do from home . 2. Difficult-to-wire environments There are many situations where wires cannot or cannot easily be laid. Historic buildings, older buildings, open areas and across busy streets make the installation of LANs either impossible or very expensive. 3. Temporary workgroups Consider situations in parks, athletic arenas, exhibitions, disaster-recovery, temporary office and construction sites where one wants a temporary WLAN established and removed. 4. The ability to access real-time information Doctors/nurses, point-of-sale employees, and warehouse workers can access real-time information while dealing with patients, serving customers and processing information. 5. Frequently changed environments The show rooms, meeting rooms, retail stores, and manufacturing sites are where the workplace is frequently rearranged. 6. Small Office and Home Office (SOHO) networks SOHO users need a cost-effective, easy and quick installation of a small network. 7. Wireless extensions to Ethernet networks Network managers in dynamic environments can minimize the overhead caused by moves, extensions to networks, and other changes with wireless LANs. 8. Wired LAN backup Network managers implement wireless LANs to provide backup for mission-critical applications running on wired networks. 9. Training/Educational Facilities Training sites at corporations and students at universities use wireless connectivity to ease access to information, information exchanges, and learning. 10.

The infrastructure mode requires the use of an access point (AP). In this mode, all wireless communication between two computers has to be via the AP whether the AP is wired to an Ethernet network or stands alone. If used as a stand-alone, the AP can extend the range of independent wireless LANs by acting a repeater, which effectively doubles the distance between wireless stations If wired to an Ethernet network, the AP serves as a bridge and provides the link between the server and the wireless clients. The wireless clients can move freely throughout the coverage area of the AP while remaining connected to the server. Since the AP is connected to the wired network, each client would have access to server resources as well as to other clients. 2. Ad-hoc (peer-to-peer) This is the simplest network configuration that several computers equipped with the PC cards that form a wireless network whenever they are within range of one another. In ad-hoc mode, each client is linked peer-to-peer and would only have access to the resources of the other client, this requires no access point.
