Question 1

What are the two functions of an access point?

Accepted Answer

First, the access point acts as the base station for the wireless network. All of the devices that have a wireless NIC can transmit to the AP, which in turn redirects the signal to the other wireless devices. The second function of an AP is to act as a bridge between wireless and wired networks. The AP can be connected to the standard network by a cable, allowing the wireless devices to access the data network through it
