Hello stagers,
I just learned a interesting fact about internet Wi-Fi.
What does Wi-Fi stand for?
I'm not one to be computer 🖥 savvy. That's why I found this fact to be extremely interesting.

I looked it up and it is neat.
As a computer guy I know that it stands for wireless fidelity. It's basically that your router is a tiny radio station that emits radio waves and your computer and other devices that use internet are tiny radios to receive those transmitted waves

The wi stands for wireless but the fi I can't remember without looking it up. It is not fidelity. They called it wi-fi to rhyme with Hi-Fi.
OK stagers here is the answer to" Your Wi-Fi connection "
First off this answer is going to be very controversial. Many of you will agree to disagree.
The information that I received was and I quote
Wi-Fi isn't an acronym and doesn't stand for anything. Many people think that Wi-Fi is short for Wireless Fidelity. The program was actually called Program IEEE802.11 and was created by a group calling themselves Wireless Fidelity Alliance. People began to call it Wi-Fi in the 1990s".
I'll apologize before hand to any who believe otherwise. I myself was astonished until someone pointed it out to me.
I set a goal this year to learn two new facts and two new words every day. I'm topping that goal easily.

Yeah I looked it up and found it. Wi-Fi was the name of the company that started it. LOL
Just like Portable Computer with the Sales people became the Laptop. LOL

Well I learned something today thanks
Talking with a friend of mine who works very closely in the realm of micro and Wi-Fi transmissions for the flycam industry covering sporting events, he strongly recommends that we keep routers in our home or business, as far away from us as possible given the dangers of the transmissions.
