Even though wireless or Wi-Fi network security is the bread and butter of today's IT Wi-Fi infrastructure, many networking specialists still fear wireless networks because of horror stories from around the world. However, these horror stories happen only in unprotected and unsecure wireless networks. Protected and well managed wireless networks can be almost as reliable as physical wired networks, and we hope this wireless network security tutorial can help you to achieve your security goals.

How to crack WEP with Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG is a task that can employ you for a long time. The Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG network adapter driver that comes from the manufacturer does not provide packet injection and network monitoring capabilities which are needed to crack WEP, and therefore before you attempt WEP cracking efforts, you have to update your driver first which can be a daunting task.

The 802.11n IEEE Wi-Fi wireless LAN communication standard has finally made it into mass production and is available in the market. Home and business wireless network technicians researching WLAN products face an array of choices in the Wi-Fi technologies arena, and it may not be easy to navigate in the wireless communication waters and make the right decisions. This page brings you information about the 802.11n wireless standard.

Cycle stealing or CPU scavenging is a concept in distributed computing that relates to utilizing networked resources to accomplish a common computational goal. Some computational tasks can easily overwhelm limits of a single dedicated computer, and cycle stealing is a method for providing additional computing horse power to a task.

How to break MAC filtering was probably the first question that followed the invention of the MAC filtering concept and was asked in the same minute when MAC filtering was introduced as a security concept. Many people still use MAC filtering or MAC addressing as a security measure for their wireless networks, but the sad truth is that MAC filtering is very easy to break; it might even be the easiest security measure to break. Luckily, the population of such wireless users has been rapidly decreasing. This page describes the concept of MAC filtering and demonstrates how easily broken it can be.

Efforts to crack WEP encryption have been around and even publicly discussed since the inception of the WEP protocol, and this page brings you information about how to discover and calculate a WEP key from network traffic. This introduction to WEP cracking may be useful to anyone who intends to investigate network security.

Wireless communication standards IEEE 802.11 are in place to ensure some degree of uniformity and standardization in the wireless industry. IEEE stands for Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. This organization sets standards which manufacturers of computer hardware have to follow to ensure interoperability of their hardware. Nowadays there are several common standards in the wireless industry.

One necessary device in the wireless local area network is the wireless access point, also often called wireless router. When making a selection regarding a wireless access point or a wireless router, we need to consider several parameters. So, what to consider when buying a wireless router?

Wireless Access Point (WAP) is a device that is used to connect one or more computers to an existing physical wired network. Wireless access point is a crucial item in the wireless to wired LAN (Local Area Network) connectivity that is responsible for negotiating a connection between the end user and usually a wired LAN.

Windows Server 2008 is the newest release of server operating system from Microsoft. Windows Server 2008 was released on February 27, 2008.

After almost five years of break, Windows Server 2008 is the successor to Windows Server 2003.
