Wi-Fi Strengths

 -> It allows local area networks (LANs) to be setup with cabling. The can reduce associated costs of network      
     connection and expansions. Places where cables cannot be run, such as outdoor areas and historical buildings      
     can use wireless LANs.

 -> Wi-Fi products are extensively available in the market. There are different brands of access points and user's      
     network interfaces are able to inter-operate at a very basic service level.

 -> Prices are considerably lower as competition amongst vendors' increases.

 -> Wi-Fi networks can support roaming. This allows mobile users with laptop computer to be able to move from      
     one access point to another.

 -> Numerous access points and network interfaces support various degrees of encryption to protect traffic from      
     interception.

 -> Wi-Fi has a set of global standards. Not like the cellular carriers, the same Wi-Fi users can work in different      
     countries around the world at all time.
