FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTER

Detailed explanation-1: -Access Points not only extend your existing wireless network further, but also allow your network to be extended via wired functionality via an Ethernet cable plugged into Ethernet ports on both the Access Point and the additional device.

Detailed explanation-2: -An access point is a device that creates a wireless local area network, or WLAN, usually in an office or large building. An access point connects to a wired router, switch, or hub via an Ethernet cable, and projects a WiFi signal to a designated area.

Detailed explanation-3: -Access points work by connecting direct to your broadband router or network switch with a Ethernet or data cable. This provides the AP with the internet connection and bandwidth required. It then transmits and receives a wireless signal in either the 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz frequency range (WIFI).

Detailed explanation-4: -Use an Ethernet cable to connect the access point to the router. The cable should be inserted into a LAN port on the router and into the main Ethernet port on the access point. This introduces the access point to the router’s created local area network. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the router to the computer.
