Wireless gateway

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A wireless gateway is a computer networking device that routes packets from a wireless LAN to another network, typically a wired WAN. Wireless gateways combine the functions of a wireless access point, a router, and often provide firewall functions as well. This converged device saves desk space and simplifies wiring by replacing two electronic devices with one.
