Municipal Wi-Fi Municipal Wi-Fi generally refers to the perception of turning an entire city or region into a wireless access zone with a goal of making wireless internet access a universal service (Delta and Matsuura 17). Municipal Wi-Fi is in most instances deployed in large parts of the municipal area or the whole of it by employing a wireless mesh network, which uses hundreds of outdoor routers on utility poles. Recently, there have been struggles for municipal Wi-Fi on whether it should be

1.0 INTRODUCTION Computer-based information system (CBIS) is a computer which plays the major role and with it there are six components that support the process such as people, hardware, software, telecommunications, database and procedure. Each of these components plays their part in ensuring the system run as instructed. Along with those components, the basic requirement is power and/or electricity. This is because without electricity, there will be no process can be done. People People or information
Wireless communication has encouraged the practice of optimizing performance in wireless networks to achieve higher data rates and network coverage for the end user. Such strategies and methods will be examined to verify their validity and to introduce future solutions to the limitations of wireless communication systems. Wireless communication performance is affected by channel fading, path loss, and interference. There are several techniques that can be used to avoid signal degradation. At
Home Networks Home networks are common but may be difficult to setup and maintain. The difficulty users experience in setting up and maintaining their home network is challenging because of the numerous security threats that can exploit poorly configured and maintained network security (Ho et al, 2010). Users generally do not understand the normal encryption mechanism within wireless routers and access points. Additionally, users utilize weak security configuration within their wireless networks from
Wi-Fi on Campus: Is It Beneficial or A Distraction? One among the successes of the computer industry in the last few years is the innovation of Wi-Fi, a short-range wireless broadband technology, which marked a rare bright spot in a bubble-battered market. Wi-Fi is a facility that allows computers, smartphones or other devices to connect to the internet or communicate with one another wirelessly within a particular area (Hamblen and Hofstadter, 2008). Wi-Fi access is available in a growing number
where high-speed Internet¡¦s access is free. What I found interesting was that the hacks were pretty basic and that most of the information on how to break into default systems, how to look for Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) being enabled and other wireless steps could be found in a Google search. My brother Carlos a ¡§full time computer geek¡¨ and I had decided at the beginning of the summer that we were taking the family to Disney but I wasn¡¦t going to take any downtime or a vacation per se. Instead
Introduction to Wireless Networks 2.1Basic Concepts of a Communication Network Initially, before defining that what is a wireless network and how it works, firstly it is important to know some basic concepts like: what is a communication network in general, the services that it offers, the needed components for operation and normally it’s necessary to know some information about wired network because it is difficult to understand how works a wireless network before knowing how works a wired network, and
console, also known as terminal is a basic computer connected to another computer, server or mainframe. Its function is to maintain the status of the network or computer. In some programs, console allows developers or advanced user to access the special features to issue command by pressing the tilde key when the program running. In Local Area Network(LAN), Ethernet is a physical and data link layer technology. used to connect more than one computer systems to form LAN that comes with protocols that

The term though is most often used to refer to wireless networks in public settings such as restaurants and malls. While some are free, a lot require fees for use. They may either charge by the data you use or the time connected to the network. It is a huge convenience but it sometimes will come at a price; even hotels are known to charge a significant amount for
A wireless network is a wireless communication system that allows electronic devices and computing workstations communicate and exchange data with each other by utilizing radio waves as the transmission medium. Wireless networking offers many advantages for organizations and users such as increased productivity, portability and flexibility, and lower installation costs. However, wireless networking is also coupled with security threats that can alter and damage an organization’s computing and networking
many reasons why wireless networks are used. One reason is for a temporary backup to an existing broken cable network. Cable networks can leave many users disconnected from the network by one bad or broken cable. When this happens a wireless network may help to get these users connected until they can be reconnected through or repaired cable. This also leads to the usage of wireless networks being used as a backup. It would be much easier to connect the disconnected users to the network if they were
