Detailed explanation-1: -An extended service set (ESS) is a wireless network, created by multiple access points, which appears to users as a single, seamless network, such as a network covering a home or office that is too large for reliable coverage by a single access point.
Detailed explanation-2: -An Extended Service Set is comprised of a number of IEEE 802.11 BSS (Basic Service Set) and enables limited mobility within the WiFi network. Stations are able to move between BSS within a single ESS yet still remain connected to the fixed network and so continue to receive emails etc.
