    1. Introduction The use of wireless communication for data networking has been around since the early 1990’s, mostly using proprietary technologies. The Aloha network in Hawaii (circa 1970) was one of the first data communication networks without wires. The emergence and acceptance of standards around 2000 has exploded the use of wireless access and currently (2004) several forms of wireless communication is widely used by the mainstream computing community. These forms include, amongst others, the IEEE 802.11 series of wireless products, various forms of data access provided by cellular providers and an emerging technology for short-range communication called Bluetooth.

Presently, the United States and other countries are moving to third-generation (3G) and fourth-generation mobile telephony. The defining feature of these technologies is that transmission speeds are significantly faster than prevailing technology, making it possible to provide services such as high speed access to the Internet and to receive broadcast television programs. A related trend is the growth in use of Wi-Fi (wireless fidelity) and WiMAX (an industry designation for a specific broadband standard). Wi-Fi uses local wireless networks for high-speed mobile access to the Internet and also provides wireless Internet access for laptop computers Homes, offices, colleges and schools around the world have installed Wi-Fi equipment to blanket their premises with wireless access to the internet.
