How does a wireless network work?
A wireless network (WLAN – Wireless Local Area Network) enables sharing of a broadband Internet connection around the computers in a home or other premises without the need for cables. Wireless is also referred to as Wi-Fi. The benefit of a wireless network is that any computer in the house that has a wireless adapter can access the internet at the same time – all laptops sold at Tesco have inbuilt wireless adapters.
