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.

Note:

Your computer may not support all wireless connection methods.
