Almost all the applications are using the internet without any discrimination of the use of a wired internet network or a wireless internet network. Wi-Fi is the wireless internet network that spread the internet signal in the air in all directions with the assistance of a Wi-Fi router.

As the signals are transmitted in the open air, any user within the range of the transmitted signals can access the internet if there is no security applied to the Wi-Fi.

Mostly, the Wi-Fi networks are secured with the password. There are different types of securities at the back end of the Wi-Fi password.
