Hi, Mr. Stephan and Shubham, you can not have a complete Wi-Fi on a single PC. However, if you have two or more than two PCs at your home or at office, you could always make them Wi-Fi enabled and can access, transmit or receive the text, doc, audio, video, files of even huge size with in fraction of seceonds. You need not connect them using conventional ethernet cable, which is unnecessary a trouble all the way from digging, laying of cable all around your furnished home. connect your PCs using Wireless Adapter and become free to work anywhere. Using 802.11b technology one can get a blistering upto 11 Mbps of speed. No wire, no cabling required, easy and quick set up would enable you to have Wi-Fi pcs. Have i answered your query, if not, mail me at raghvendra@neekhra.com.

Wi-Fi has a great future, People would have to realize the potential of the same, which enables you to roam around with a blistering wireless connectivity, high speed internet surfing, flexibiltiy, freedom to work almost anywhere, right from your seminar halls, conference halls, cantene, etc. It is easy to understand and configure with your existing wired connection. It does provide and better than conventional 10 Base T cables, it reduces cabling time and its post effects. One can shift his entire office without thinking of cabling at the other location. You just need to plug and play and roam anywhere.

Security is the biggest concern in Wi-Fi zones : Understanding wireless security challenges: In addition to the great benefits wireless networks provide,enterprises that deploy this technology must understand and deal with the security issues related to radio transmission. Radio waves cannot be controlled and travel freely through most physical barriers, easily spreading confidential data beyond the walls of an office or home. With the transmission power of todays devices, ranges of 300 feet or more are common. If not handled properly, this potentially creates a major security hole in a network. However, this lack of security is not just limited to wireless technologies. Data transmission technologies that rely on cables are not any more secure. They only happen to be easier to protect with physical barriers. Should the physical barriers be broken, then the actual security of the network can easily be compromised. For example, Ethernet LANs or dial-up Internet connections are both vulnerable to simple cable tapping. Since wireless technology has no inherent physical protection, it forces us to take a more critical look at current network security practices and acknowledge their weaknesses. Once this is done,we can create solutions using existing proven technology. Finding a solution: The fact is that today, most local area networks function without data security at the physical or logical link layers,as do the majority of dial-up and broadband Internet connections. They are generally only protected from intruders through some form of user authentication or Internet firewall. When data security is required, it is usually implemented at layer 3 or above. For example, transactions on the Web are secured with HTTPS (SSL). Remote access to corporate networks is secured with virtual private networking (VPN). One of the main reasons for this, is that implementing security at the physical layer is not always practical because a logical connection between two devices may be carried across more than one physical link. Providing end-to-end security between the two endpoints of a connection is more desirable because it functions independently of the underlying data transport. This type of security is best implemented at layer 3, the IP layer, since an IP datagram is the smallest addressable unit of data that is carried on an IP network. If we view wireless technology in this context, the approach shifts from trying to encrypt the radio transmissions (as is done by most wireless access points using Wired Equivalent Protection or WEP), to creating secure end-to-end connections between stations. Currently, the most flexible method for doing this is to use an access point that integrates virtual private networking (VPN). for further details contact ez-comm wireless tel: +91 22 22825252

Security is the biggest concern in Wi-Fi zones today and except Compex no there products offer secured wireless network. Compex has unique feature call Pseudo VLAN and with this no there user can see you over the WLAN. Very effective feature and very useful for Wi-Fi zones and WLAN users
