In businesses, schools and homes wireless local area network that works on the basis of Wi-Fi standards are used as the fastest growing technology. By means of providing network connection and getting access to the internet the user can stay connected with the enterprise from their desk itself. They are more quick and beneficial than the wired Ethernet infrastructure. The WLAN allows mobile employee to be always connected with the necessary applications and data. Instant messaging and continuous access to the emails can bring rise in the productivity. New application depending of the mobile connectivity can be developed easily and does not require or rely on special installation tools. But WLANs do not have effectively addressed security issues.
