Why do we need WiFi? Except WiFi can help mobile device connect the Internet, WiFi also can solve some problems. For example, the traditional wired network is hard to deploy mazy cables but Wireless network doesn’t need too many cables.

How to choose the right WiFi solution for enterprise?
WiFi network can help work fast and convenient. It’s a good choice for many enterprises now. To select the right WiFi solution, enterprises should consider at least two things:
First, the Budget. Yes, everything need money. If the budget of your WiFi solution is not much, I recommend you choose small brands (such as D-link, Ruckus, etc.), instead of Cisco.
Second, the number of users or the Signal coverage area. We should know how users will connect the WiFi network, in order to buy enough access points. Cisco says each Cisco APs can cover 50×50 inches of area.
