Chapter 8 Highlights - 3 Facts Learned Blog

Assignment 6 - After reading Chapter 8, post to your blog 3 facts you learned from the chapter. Tell the fact, definition, or explain what you learned.

Fact 1 - I learned that the new upcoming 4G wireless network technology is expected to bring connection speeds up to 100 Mbps. This technology will also make it possible for wireless devices to move between different wireless networks without losing signal.

Fact 2 - I learned that in 1978 wireless technology was first successfuly used in Chicago which created the first generation of wireless networks. This first generation of wireless networking consisted of phones with voice-only capabilities that operated wirelessly on an analog cellular network (cell phone).

Fact 3 - I learned that Bluetooth compatible devices communicate automatically and do not require an access point for communication. I also learned that there is no single manufacturer or specific group that owns the copyrights to Bluetooth technology.
