802.11 legacy is the original version of the standard IEEE 802.11 released in 1997 specifies two raw data rates of 1 and 2 megabits per second (Mbit/s) to be transmitted via infrared (IR) signals or in the Industrial Scientific Medical frequency band at 2.4 GHz. IR remains a part of the standard but has no actual implementations. The original standard also defines Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) as the media access method.

Javvin Technologies, Inc. has just published the WLAN/Wi-Fi Technology Quick Guide. WLAN/Wi-Fi technology quick guide covers all major WLAN/Wi-Fi technologies: Wi-Fi architecture, protocols and standards, worldwide frequency bands and channels, security problems and solutions. In this quick guide, table and chart are included to compare the main characters of Wi-Fi with other wireless technologies. Also, a WLAN/Wi-Fi glossary and dictionary is included for your quick reference.
