WiFivastuvõtja

WiFivastuvõtja is an Estonian term that translates to "Wi-Fi receiver" or "Wi-Fi adapter" in English. It refers to a hardware component or device that enables a computer, smartphone, or other electronic device to connect to a wireless local area network (WLAN) using Wi-Fi technology.

These receivers are essential for wireless internet access. They pick up radio waves transmitted by a Wi-Fi router or access point and convert them into data that the connected device can understand. Conversely, they also transmit data from the device back to the router. Wi-Fi receivers operate on specific radio frequencies, typically 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz, and adhere to various Wi-Fi standards (like 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax) which determine their speed and range capabilities.

WiFivastuvõtjad can be integrated directly into devices, such as laptops and smartphones, or they can be external peripherals. External Wi-Fi adapters often connect via USB ports, offering a way to add Wi-Fi functionality to devices that lack it or to upgrade older devices to support newer, faster Wi-Fi standards. The presence and quality of a WiFivastuvõtja directly impact the strength, stability, and speed of a wireless internet connection.
