What is the difference between WLAM and WIFI?

There are several differences between the two.

1. WLAN and WiFi actually have the same role, but the area covered by WLAN is relatively wider;

2. For example, large shopping malls, restaurants or public places, but WIF cannot reach this level, so in general, small families will install WiFi;

3. WLAN will be installed in large facilities or entertainment venues, and the role of both is the same;

4. It is all in order to enable any handheld device to network and communicate under the device that does not turn on GPRS.

1. WiFi is a technology that can wirelessly connect terminals such as personal computers and handheld devices (such as PDAs and mobile phones). WiFi technology, like Bluetooth technology, is a short-range wireless technology used in offices and homes.

2. WLAN is a local area network that works in or 5GHz frequency band and is composed of wireless mode, referred to as wireless LAN. WLAN communication systems are generally used in the same building as an alternative to wired LAN.

3. The main differences between WiFi and WLAN are as follows:

Difference 1] WiFi is included in WLAN, and the power of the transmitted signal is different, and the coverage range is different.

1) In terms of inclusion, WiFi is a standard of WLAN, and WiFi is included in WLAN, which is a new technology in the WLAN protocol.

2) The coverage range of WiFi can reach about 300 feet (about 90 meters), and the maximum WLAN (plus antenna) can reach 5km.

Difference 2] The range of wireless signals covered is different.

1) WLAN wireless Internet access actually includes WIFI wireless Internet access, WLAN wireless Internet coverage is wider.

2) Wifi is more suitable for smart small digital products such as smartphones and tablets.

If you don't have Wi-Fi, you can connect to Wi-Fi, but you can't access Wi-Fi.

I haven't heard of any MLAN Internet should be WLAN, popularly speaking, WLAN is a wireless LAN, is a system that uses radio frequency technology to transmit, the emergence of this technology is by no means used to replace the wired LAN, but to make up for the lack of the wired LAN, in order to achieve the purpose of network extension, so that the wireless LAN can use the simple access architecture to allow users to pass through it, to achieve no network cable, no distance limit of the smooth network. The disadvantage is that the transmission speed is not as fast as that of the wired LAN, and it is susceptible to interference and is not stable enough.

The biggest advantage of WiFi is that it has a high transmission speed, which can reach 11Mbps, and it also has a long effective distance, and it is also compatible with various existing devices. This summer's most popular notebook, Centrino technology, is based on this standard, and wireless Internet access has become a reality. The coverage of radio waves is very small, with a radius of about 50 feet or about 15 meters, while the radius of Wi-Fi can reach about 300 feet or about 100 meters, and it can be used in the entire building, not to mention the office.

Recently, a new type of switch was introduced by the company Vivato. It is reported that this product can expand the communication distance of the current Wi-Fi wireless network from 300 feet to 100 meters to 4 miles and about kilometers.

Both MLAN and WiFi belong to WLAN (Unlimited Local Area Network).

While MLAN is **LAN, which only connects to PC, and WiFi is a network that connects electronic devices.
