AVM and WLAN
WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) is a radio technology that allows
networks and access to the Internet to be provided without cable
connections. This allows multiple users to share one wireless Internet
connection.
6.1 Standards
The WLAN standards IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g and
IEEE 802.11i were developed by the Institute of Electrical
and Electronic Engineers (IEEE).
The standards IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g define the
transmission rate within a wireless LAN. The IEEE 802.11i
standard is a security standard.
Standards for the Throughput Rate
These standards differentiate between gross and net
transmission rates. The net speed describes the transmis-
sion rate of the user data.
Data Throughput The FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick supports the 802.11g wireless
standard and is downward compatible to 802.11b net-
works. The standard used in a given WLAN depends on the
settings of the WLAN access point.
*Does not apply for FRITZ!Box WLAN products with the IEEE 802.11n radio standard.
