Wireless is technology that allows communication without a cable. Radio has been with us for more than 100 years and is the most well known wireless technology. Other wireless technology are infrared and visual light as the bearer of data.

In 1999 wireless ethernet (802.11abg+) became popular first offering 2 Mbps, 11 Mbps, 53 Mbps and currently they advertise 300 Mbps between laptop and base station.

Some people say they are allergic to the microwaves produced by wireless ethernet.
