ACCESS POINT 
 
1. Introduction 
This user guide provides an overview of the Wireless LAN Technology and 
instruction for using the Access Point. Actually, Wireless LAN is a flexible data 
communication system implemented as an extension to, or as an alternative for, a 
wired LAN within a building or campus. Using electromagnetic waves, WLANs 
transmit and receive data over the air, minimizing the need for wired connections. 
 
Overall, we hope this document is helpful to give users a Clear View on the Access 
Point and a better understanding of WLAN Technology.
