Wireless Internet Modem

Wireless Internet modem is a device that allows connecting computers to a wireless local area network (WLAN) without need for cabling. Wireless modems use cellular, Wi-Fi or satellite protocols to connect to a WLAN, which can then provide Internet service. This differs from DSL and dial-up modems that use phone lines to connect to the Internet, while cable modems use cable TV lines for connectivity.

For mobile applications, a PCMCIA Internet laptop modem wireless card can provide access to the Internet through public "hotspots." This refers to geographical areas where WLANs allow public Internet access via wireless modems. In some cases a small membership fee is required, while other hotspots are free.

Wireless modems allow you to share and extend your Cable/DSL/phone connection anywhere in your home or office, whether its for your wireless laptop modem or wireless Internet modem or wireless cell modem.

The wireless modem system precludes the time or expense of Ethernet cabling. The wireless modem can also be used in larger wireless networks in conjunction with other standards-based wireless modem access points.
