FC0-U71 2.0: Wireless Networks

Tech+ Topic

Wireless Networks for Tech+

In scope (recognition + simple comparison): - Common Wi-Fi standards: 802.11n / 802.11ac / 802.11ax - Speed considerations (newer standards generally faster) - Basic frequency bands (2.4 GHz vs 5 GHz) at a high level - Channels/interference as basic concepts (no deep RF) - Basic wireless security settings: SSID, changing default password, encryption types (open vs pre-shared key; WPA/WPA2/WPA3)

Start first lesson

3 lessons in this topic

1

Wi-Fi Standards & Bands

Recognize 802.11n/ac/ax and compare 2.4 GHz vs 5 GHz at a basic level.

2

Small Wireless Network Components

Explain the basic role of a wireless router vs an access point in a small network.

3

Wireless Security Settings

Identify SSID, why default passwords should be changed, and recognize open vs WPA/WPA2/WPA3 security at a basic level.

Common mistakes to avoid

1
