Connect to wireless – The future of the Internet

What is WiFi?

WiFi or Wireless Fidelity, you can connect to the Internet from virtually anywhere at speeds up to 54 Mbps. Computers and mobile phones use radio technologies based on the IEEE 802.11 to send and receive data anywhere within range of a base unit. Wireless is a technology to use inexpensive, easy and convenient, and yet … This technology is still very young. Here is a brief overview of what the future hold for wireless well.

The radio and telephone

Wireless networks will always win on the cable remote control, if for no other reason, simply because it much cheaper for signals to travel through the air, the installation and maintenance son. For example … View that the phones were originally used to send and receive messages. When radio was invented, was the practice of night – not walk, why such expenses, as and when it is over the air free? “The same principle applies to computer networks.

Imagine had the choice between a wired and wireless internet access. The only reason to choose a cable connection would be profitable, because it is cheaper now? However, this situation will soon change. Wireless is much easier. Once the cost difference is closed, when the opportunity, there is no logical reason for anyone not want to move to a wireless connection.

WiMAX

WiMAX is the next generation of wireless. It is a standard called 802.16. The current standard is 802.11. It is always a work in progress, but the possibilities are interesting.

WiMAX is Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access and is designed to add wireless devices … rather than replacing them. The major advantage of WiMax is that it greatly increased range. Instead of square meters, which is measured as the current standard, WiMAX can be measured in square kilometers measured. Some estimates say that the best stations, WiMAX is approximately at a transmission rate of up to 50 kilometers, 30 miles!

Of course this opens up an incredible range of possibilities. Wireless Access Pass LAN (Local Area Networks) in Le Mans: (Metropolitan Area Network) for an entire city or a city with wireless access. The problem would not be if you via Wi-Fi, WiMAX network could connect to, but you want to connect.

Other benefits include WiMAX speeds up to 70Mbps (nearly 10 megabytes per second) and better security. Imagine a future when the Internet access control as easy as plugging in your existing wireless network, open your Web browser and purchase a subscription at low cost. That’s it – done. No Access Points, Routers more, no more configuration … only wireless Internet, everywhere, anywhere at broadband speed. WiMAX is the world by storm.

For the latest news on WiMAX, visit the WiMAX Forum (an industry group, Non-profit created to promote WiMAX) to http://www.wimaxforum.org. WiMAX is expected in the development since 2001 and the first WiMAX devices hit the market in late 2005 or early 2006.

What is Bluetooth?

Bluetooth is a new standard for short-range wireless connectivity. It is new and promising field in the activities of wireless communication standards that will profoundly affect the operation and applications of the electronic gadgets of the future. The most obvious goal is to replace USB and Bluetooth is designed to replace almost all there, son … Except cables. What does this mean? This means that one day, your television to your DVD player via Bluetooth or connect your speakers you can connect to your radio with her, and so on and so forth.

As you age, to see, expect fewer and fewer wires. I know … People said the same on paper, but it turns out that people like paper and do not want a “paperless society”. On the other side, as you know many people who have cable or wire fetish to do? The largest remaining section is a reliable energy wirelessly. If they find a way to reliably power wireless (ie, offer better batteries) … To search because the valves actually open.

A simpler life

Comfort … The primary advantage of wireless technology comes to mind. Son have so many shortcomings, especially if they travel long distances and over the wireless project is to remove the vast majority of our lives. Of course, cost a further advantage of Nice, because if you even wirelessly full bore and it is cheaper than wire-based transmission.

My prediction … less than 10 years, will make wireless access everyone’s life easier and this will be the rule. The future is wireless!
