With Wi-Fi, you need to be able to understand its standards as well as the encryption methods. Wi-Fi standards are set by IEEE and are labeled under version 802.11. Wi-Fi standards can be identified by their different speeds and frequencies to help ensure you have what’s best for you. 802.11a is older compared to other 802.11 versions, but it still runs at high speeds. 802.11ax is possibly a standard version that a school or library would use due to its efficiency and performance when multiple people are accessing it. Wi-Fi encryption is your security over your network to prevent any unauthorized users from accessing the Wi-Fi. WEP is the oldest encryption method that has been pretty much outdated. WPA2 and WPA3 are the recommended encryption methods to run to ensure the most security over your WI-Fi and users.
