802.11 Wireless Networks: The Definitive Guide: The Definitive GuideAs we all know by now, wireless networks offer many advantages over fixed (or wired) networks. Foremost on that list is mobility, since going wireless frees you from the tether of an Ethernet cable at a desk. But that's just the tip of the cable free iceberg.

As we all know by now, wireless networks offer many advantages over fixed (or wired) networks. Foremost on that list is mobility, since going wireless frees you from the tether of an Ethernet cable at a desk. But that's just the tip of the cable-free iceberg. Wireless networks are also more flexible, faster and easier for you to use, and more affordable to deploy and maintain.

The de facto standard for wireless networking is the 802.11 protocol, which includes Wi-Fi (the wireless standard known as 802.11b) and its faster cousin, 802.11g. With easy-to-install 802.11 network hardware available everywhere you turn, the choice seems simple, and many people dive into wireless computing with less thought and planning than they'd give to a wired network. But it's wise to be familiar with both the capabilities and risks associated with the 802.11 protocols. And 802.11 Wireless Networks: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition is the perfect place to start.

This updated edition covers everything you'll ever need to know about wireless technology. Designed with the system administrator or serious home user in mind, it's a no-nonsense guide for setting up 802.11 on Windows and Linux. Among the wide range of topics covered are discussions on:

  • deployment considerations
  • network monitoring and performance tuning
  • wireless security issues
  • how to use and select access points
  • network monitoring essentials
  • wireless card configuration
  • security issues unique to wireless networks
With wireless technology, the advantages to its users are indeed plentiful. Companies no longer have to deal with the hassle and expense of wiring buildings, and households with several computers can avoid fights over who's online. And now, with 802.11 Wireless Networks: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition, you can integrate wireless technology into your current infrastructure with the utmost confidence.

Favorite Couch Ever! 💗
Color: Dark Grey, Size: 7 Seat, Color: Dark Grey, Size: 7 Seat
This couch far exceeded my expectations. It was on sale for $750 when I purchased it which is a steal! The cushions are EXTREMELY soft and comfortable. Its appearance is very modern and saves up so much space! The height is perfect and it easily folds back to make it not like a day bed. Personally we leave it like this especially with a baby because it gives us a lot of room to stretch out and again SUPER COMFORTABLE. The fabric is phenomenal and very easy to clean! 10/10 definitely recommend! Would purchase again! The storage area is perfect for pillows and blankets as the ottoman can hold things as well as the chase WHICH can be accessed while the couch is in “day bed mode” as I say. Nothing but good things to report!

Nice couch for the price
Color: Black, Size: 7 Seat, Color: Black, Size: 7 Seat
Nice and firm I was able to put it up by myself in about three hours. It is really cute The material is soft. I really like it. It was super easy to put together. It came in 4 different boxes, I was worried because people said they got the boxes on different days luckily, I got the whole couch the same day and put together that night. I’m happy with this purchase. Can’t wait to sit on it and watch TV. I just wanna give it a few days to let the seat cushions recover.

Love the storage and pull-out
Color: Dark Grey, Size: 7 Seat, Color: Dark Grey, Size: 7 Seat
The size is great and fits nicely in the corner without feeling too bulky, but still has plenty of seating. The dark grey color looks clean in person and matches my space really well — not too light, not too dark. The pull-out part is honestly one of my favorite features. It slides out pretty smoothly and turns into a big lounging area or bed. I’ve already used it to relax and watch TV and it’s really comfortable. The storage compartment is also bigger than I expected — I can fit blankets and a few extra things in there easily, which helps keep everything more organized. Comfort-wise, I’d say it’s medium-firm. Not super soft like a cloud couch, but still comfortable enough for everyday use. The cushions seem to hold their shape pretty well so far. Assembly took a bit of time and it’s easier with two people, but overall it wasn’t too complicated. Once it’s set up, it feels pretty sturdy. If I had to nitpick, the cushions do shift a little after sitting for a while, so you may need to adjust them occasionally. But for the price, I think that’s pretty normal.

very nice for the money
Color: Dark Grey, Size: 5 Seat, Color: Dark Grey, Size: 5 Seat
Very comfy. The color is perfect. The back pillows do shift when leaning against them but a throw pillow or two helps comfort. The material is soft. And it was fairly easy to assemble with 2 people.
