communication issues. The reality of any system is that at any given time it will only be a strong as the weakest part of the system, and unlike wired networks
there is a much greater potential for remoter security breaches. Therefore, the system will need to be robust and secure in addition to running well and meeting the communication goals
which have been set down for the wireless network. In order to consider the issues the first stage is to look at the basic standards for wireless networking. The
development of wireless networking and local area networks (LAN) has necessitated the development of uniform standards to ensure different systems can be integrated and the wireless devices are not incompatible.
IEEE developed the 802 set of standards to unify mobile technology, 80.211 have been the protocols for what has become colloquially known as WiFi (Brenner, 1996). 802.11 variants have
a cellular architecture, each of the cells is called a Basic Service Set (BSS) which will be controlled by a base station, which is known as an access point (AP)
(Brenner, 1996). These form the wireless LAN, which, in theory may be made up on only a single BSS and a single AP in a single cell (Benner, 1996).
It is more likely to a LAN would made up of several cells with the access points usually connected by some type of
backbone which may be a connection such as an Ethernet or itself maybe a wireless network (Benner, 1996). Like any technology there have been developments and changes as well as
factors which have caused dissatisfaction. The main development are 802.11b and 802.11g, however there are a range protocols in the family and to understand where the technology is leading
