Yet this amazing growth has also created confusion: Which version of 802.11 is best for vendors and end-users? What about solutions such as the a/g and a/b combinations of the 802.11 standards?In World Wide Wi-FiWireless LANsIEEE 802.11 (Standard)Local area networks industryElectronic books.Wireless LANs.IEEE 802.11 (Standard)Local area networks industry.004.6004.6/8004.68Tan Teik-Kheong1964-944430Bing Benny848902MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910143516003321The world wide Wi-Fi2131939UNINA
