Wi-FiWiMAX Wireless connection----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wireless connections provide mobile access to the Internet, allowing you to stay online anywhere the wireless signal covers.

Divided by the signal scales, wireless connection to the Internet can be built based on the following standards.

Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi networks cover a small physical area, like a home,

 

office, or small group of buildings. An access point is

 

necessary for the connection.

 

 

WiMAX

WiMAX networks connect several Wireless LAN

 

systems to cover a metropolitan area, providing high-

 

speed broadband access without the need for cables.

 

 

Mobile Broadband

The Mobile Broadband network provides Internet access

 

to computers, cell phones and other devices over a large

 

geographic area. Mobile networks are used for data

 

transmission, and access is usually provided by a mobile

 

network operator. A Mobile Broadband SIM card is

 

necessary for the connection.

 

 

Note: Your computer may not support all wireless connection methods.
