#+title: WAP
Also called wireless acces point. In computer networking, a wireless access point, or more generally just access point (AP), is a [[id:c9461f7b-7368-4b88-b90b-2d785fda2159][networking]] hardware device that allows other Wi-Fi devices to connect to a wired network. As a standalone device, the AP may have a wired connection to a [[id:d2ff2e45-e1de-4cca-9b59-dfc3ee6afa6f][router]], but, in a wireless router, it can also be an integral component of the router itself. An AP is differentiated from a hotspot which is a physical location where Wi-Fi access is available.
Although WAP has been used incorrectly to describe an Access Point, the clear definition is Wireless Application Protocol which describes a [[id:bd5b34ba-aa98-4808-b97b-2376aa7b8866][protocol]] rather than a physical device.
