2. Long-range Wi-Fi - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long-range_Wi-Fi

   Long-range Wi-Fi is used for low-cost, unregulated point-to-point computer network connections, as an alternative to other fixed wireless, cellular networks or satellite Internet access. Wi-Fi networks have a range that's limited by the frequency, transmission power, antenna type, the location they're used in, and the environment. [ 1 ]

3. Piggybacking (Internet access) - Wikipedia

   While 2.4 and 5 GHz antennas are commercially available and easily purchased from many online vendors, they are also relatively easy to make. Laptops and tablets that lack external antenna jacks can rely on external Wi-Fi network cards, many requiring only USB, which the laptop can itself easily provide from its own battery.

4. Wireless network interface controller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_network_interface...

   A wireless network interface controller (WNIC) is a network interface controller which connects to a wireless network, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or LTE (4G) or 5G rather than a wired network, such as an Ethernet network. A WNIC, just like other NICs, works on the layers 1 and 2 of the OSI model and uses an antenna to communicate via radio waves.

5. ESP8266 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESP8266

   There are several antenna options for ESP-xx boards including a trace antenna, an onboard ceramic antenna, and an external connector that allows an external Wi-Fi antenna to be attached. Since Wi-Fi communications generate a lot of RFI (Radio Frequency Interference), governmental bodies like the FCC like shielded electronics to minimize ...

6. Wi-Fi over Coax - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_over_Coax

   Wi-Fi over Coax is a technology for extending and distributing Wi-Fi signals via coaxial cables. As an in-building wireless solution, Wi-Fi over Coax can make use of existing or new cabling with native impedance of 50 Ω shared by a Wi-Fi access point , cabling run, and antenna.

7. Wireless access point - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_access_point

   In computer networking, a wireless access point (WAP) (also just access point (AP)) is a networking hardware device that allows other Wi-Fi devices to connect to a wired network or wireless network. As a standalone device, the AP may have a wired or wireless connection to a switch or router , but in a wireless router it can also be an integral ...
