Why go wirelsss?
Awireless network means you don’t have to be tied to your desk. Depending on the equipment and the plan you choose, you might not even be tied to the office. There are two basic types of wireless solutions: Local Area Network (LAN) and Wide Area Network (WAN).
Wireless LANs
Traditional wired LANs use cable or wires to send data from one computer to another or from computer to printer or other device. Wireless LANs do the same thing, except using radio waves. You get the same benefits, without the wires.
More About Wireless LANs

Imagine checking your e-mail and the Internet on the road, without cables, and without looking for a place to plug in your notebook.
You could stay in touch with colleagues and clients no matter where you are. Access your most important home office files and network resources from the front seat of your car, or from your living room couch. That's what wireless WANs can do.
A wireless wide area network, or WAN, uses long-range connections to provide access over a much larger area than wireless LANs, which usually cover just one building or campus. They work on the same networks as cellular phones. Essentially, anywhere you can get a cell phone signal, you can access a wireless WAN.
These wireless WANs are perfect for people who spend a lot of time away from the office but need access to everything back at their desks: Real estate agents,
travelling salespeople, delivery personnel, and corporate executives.
