Understanding Wireless Networks

July 21, 2009

Internet, technology, wifi

We are getting so sophisticated with Internet today, aren’t we? Wasn’t it just a couple of years ago that the dialup was sufficient for moderate surfing and email?

Those days a LONG GONE. Now there’s DSL broadband, cable, satellite, and FiOs (which I hope to get someday). I work from my computer, and we play and get our news and information from the computer. It took me a good year or so to really understand the basic behind DSL routers, modems, gateway, WiFi, and WiFi security. And what makes it worse is that omce you’ve got it figured out, the technology advances and you have to learn things again.

Here’s a very good, basic video by NetGear about wireless capability. I loved it! I recently got a NetGear Wireless N capable gateway router, but I admit, the claim to spee dleft me puzzled… because none of my computers are Wireless N compatible (so far). This is a great instructional video for any of you who are wondering about all this wireless stuff. Kudos to NetGear for making such a great video!
