A wireless network connects computers without using network cables. Computers use 
radio communications to send data between each other. You can communicate directly 
with other wireless computers, or connect to an existing network through a wireless 
access point. When you set up your wireless adapter, you select the operating mode for 
the kind of wireless network you want. You can use your wireless adapter to connect to 
other similar wireless devices that comply with the 802.11 standard for wireless 
networking.

Wireless LANs can operate with or without access points, depending on the number of 
users in the network. Infrastructure mode uses access points to allow wireless computers 
to send and receive information. Wireless computers transmit to the access point, the 
access point receives the information and rebroadcasts it to other computers. The 
access point can also connect to a wired network or to the Internet. Multiple access 
points can work together to provide coverage over a wide area.
