802.11 series wireless network product experience

In general, the 802.11 series of wireless network products have good compatibility, and most wireless network adapters and wireless routers do not have compatibility issues. But for the sake of stability, we recommend that you use the same brand of wireless router and wireless network card for high requirements.

The load-bearing wall of reinforced concrete has a strong obstacle to wireless signals. Therefore, for the "duplex" residential and Villa-type home environment, the best solution is to configure a wireless router for each layer. In practical application, the indoor AP coverage can be up to 30 meters.

The actual usage rate of 802.11b is only about 40% of the nominal value, and the converted data transmission rate is about 64/128 kb/s. If it is set to-bit WEP encryption, the transmission rate will be further reduced, therefore, you must pay more attention to interference during use and try to stay away from microwave ovens, cordless phones, and Bluetooth devices.

If the wireless signal is suddenly weak, no physical changes are made. You can try to change the wireless channel or add an external antenna.

Windows XP has built-in support for WLAN, Which is plug-and-play and easy to use and set. Windows 98, Windows ME, and windows are inferior to Windows XP in terms of stability and ease of use for wireless networks, and occasionally conflict with each other.

Therefore, if the hardware configuration is high enough, use Windows XP as much as possible. At the same time, it should be noted that the operating system before Windows 95 (including Windows 95) does not support Wi-Fi.

A wired network can restrict access to the network in a physical way to a certain extent.

However, if the security problem of the wireless LAN is not carefully considered, intruders may listen to wireless network data to obtain unauthorized access.
