Ellen Messmer writes: While this 344-page technical guide to wireless LAN technology will be helpful to those setting up wireless networks, it doesn't attempt to categorize manufacturer equipment or sort through the ongoing industry battles over protocols. It sticks to describing what wireless LANs should and can do based on recognized IEEE and other standards, along with trouble-shooting the problems that may crop up.
