Instant Help through Wi-Fi Support Number

Wi-Fi is a technology that has become very popular today. Everyone loves this technology because it enables the user to access internet on several digital devices inside a structure without any wires. Wi-Fi is a household term and it means wireless fidelity. It is just like WLAN that stands for wireless local area network.

Wi-Fi works in the same manner as other wireless devices by sending radio signals. But the frequencies of Wi-Fi are in Gigahertz whereas these frequencies are in kilohertz and Megahertz for AM and FM radio stations. Interestingly, one household appliance that also uses Gigahertz frequencies is Microwave Owen. While Wi-Fi utilizes frequencies in the range of 2.4 GHz-5 GHz, microwave Owen used frequency of 2.45 GHz to heat up food. This is also the reason why your internet access is interrupted for a while when microwave is being used inside your home.

Invented in 1991 by NCR Corporation in Netherland

If Wi-Fi had not been invented, it would not have been possible for anyone to have internet access in his mobile phone sitting in a café or while moving on a train. It was in 1991 that the application of Wi-Fi was first invented in a laboratory of NCR Corporation/AT & T. While Wi-Fi support was invented mainly for mobile computing, it is today being extensively used for apps and electronics like digital cameras, DVD players, and smart televisions. A router and a modem catch the radio signals and then transfer them to all devices in a particular range with the help of an antenna.

Every modern digital device being sold in the market today comes fitted with a Wi-Fi car or receiver. As soon as this device enters a place where Wi-Fi system is installed, it can access internet by enabling Wi-Fi settings. As access to internet is dependent upon signals, speed of internet increases as the device comes closer to the router while it decreases when the user moves away from this router. Also, in a home or office, the speed of internet is dependent upon how many people are using the same Wi-Fi network as the speed gets divided between these users.

Realizing the need of the people to say connected with their friends and business, more and more public places today are becoming Wi-Fi hotspots, allowing devices of visitors to automatically connect to internet. You will find this facility of free Wi-Fi services in many airports, railway stations, universities, colleges, some restaurants, and public offices.
