Wirless made easier

Book is a great guide for the novice when it comes to installing a wireless network

Great wireless networking resource

Peter and Barry have documented tons of good information on wireless networks in this book. From Wi-Fi to Bluetooth to site surveys to security and even throwing in great reference material on RF, wireless standards, and more. Even after working with 802.11 wireless networks for several years, I've learned a good bit from this book in a very short time. I especially like the neat wireless tools and other wireless Internet resources they present. Just like most of the other For Dummies books, Wireless Networks For Dummies is practical, real-world, and more than enough to get started. I challenge anyone to find a more comprehensive book on this hot topic.
