and other devices intending to communicate with a specific WLAN cannot achieve successful network
connectivity unless presenting the identical SSID. From some perspective, an SSID performs as a kind
of password to supply a measure of security on the WLAN. However, if an access point is set to
“broadcast” its SSID, this essential security is no longer remained. An SSID is also known as a
Network Name.
WEP - Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a security mechanism for wireless local area networks. It is
designed for 802.11 standard to offer an equal level of security as that of a wired LAN. Through the
configurations of encryption, WEP aims to provide security while the nodes with wireless devices are
transferring or receiving data packets over radio waves.
WLAN – Wireless local area network (WLAN) receive and transmit data over the air by using radio
frequency (RF) technology. The vital significance of WLAN is it minimizes the requirements for wired
connections and provides not only data connectivity but also user mobility. Without the constraint of
physical location, wireless LAN allows clients to transmit and receive data via high-frequency radio
waves rather than wires.

USB – USB, standing for Universal Serial Bus, was designed to make a connection between the
computer and its peripherals, such as keyboards, scanners, webcams, printers, etc., via an easy
operation of plug-and-play. USB has proved to be a good solution that allows users to quickly and
easily connect and add peripherals to computers. Through the USB interface, there’s even no need to
turn the computer off while adding a new peripherals mentioned above to a desktop or laptop computer.
Due to its convenience and simplicity, USB has won world-wide popularity, and most peripherals for
computers these days are designed for the USB standard.
