Wireless 802.11b

Wireless 802.11b is the most commonly used wireless LAN protocol.
This type of technology uses direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) to
produce bitstreams that are sent in the 2.45-GHz ISM band. Speed
varies for this technology depending on how good your signal is, but can
be as high as 11 Mbps or as low as 2 Mbps from as far as 1000 feet.
The main concern with 802.11b is that it is sometimes far too easy to
attack its vulnerabilities. The next section will discuss the most common
attacks that hackers can use to try and gain access to intranet and network
resources.
