802.11
"Wi-Fi" is the trade name for the IEEE 802.11 standard. the name is used to sell the product , much like the term "Firewire" (IEEE 1394).

Ethernet is the most popular network technology used on wired LANs. And IEEE 802 i.e Wi-fi is used for wireless LANs. -- By MyNarutoAnime ----
Wi-fi stands for Wireless fidelity, The term Wi-Fi was created by the Wi-Fi Alliance, which oversees testing on a product, a product that passes the alliance tests is "Wi-Fi certified"
following are the advantages of gi-fi: 1. high data transfer rate (5 gbps) 2. low power consumption than bluetooth and wifi 3. high range of frequency operation (60 ghz) 4. compatible with IEEE 802.1.15.3c technology
"Wireless Infidelity" is a parody of the phrase "Wireless Fidelity", abbreviated as "Wi-Fi". The Wi-Fi Alliance defines Wi-Fi as any "wireless local area network (WLAN) products that are based on the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers' (IEEE) 802.11 standards". However, since most modern WLANs are based on these standards, the term "Wi-Fi" is used in general English as a synonym for "WLAN".
Wi-Fi technology was developed in 1997 when the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) ratified the 802.11 standard for wireless local area networks (WLANs). The first consumer Wi-Fi products became available in 1999, marking the beginning of widespread adoption. The technology has since evolved significantly, leading to faster and more reliable wireless communication.
"Wi-Fi, also spelled Wifi or WiFi, is a local area wireless technology that allows an electronic device to exchange data or connect to the internet using 2.4 GHz UHF and 5 GHz SHF radio waves. The name is a trademark name, and is a play on theaudiophile term Hi-Fi. The Wi-Fi Alliance defines Wi-Fi as any "wireless local area network (WLAN) products that are based on the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers' (IEEE) 802.11 standards". However, since most modern WLANs are based on these standards, the term "Wi-Fi" is used in general English as a synonym for "WLAN". Only Wi-Fi products that complete Wi-Fi Alliance interoperability certification testing successfully may use the "Wi-Fi CERTIFIED" trademark" Visual Artistics: Top notch website design company based in Singapore.

"WiMAX is not a technology, but rather a certification mark, or 'stamp of approval' given to equipment that meets certain conformity and interoperability tests for the IEEE 802.16 family of standards. A similar confusion surrounds the term Wi-Fi, which like WiMAX, is a certification mark for equipment based on a different set of IEEE standards from the 802.11 working group for wireless local area networks (WLAN). Neither WiMAX, nor Wi-Fi is a technology but their names have been adopted in popular usage to denote the technologies behind them. This is likely due to the difficulty of using terms like 'IEEE 802.16' in common speech and writing."
The main technology to connect computers (also called nodes) to any device such as a router, switch, or another computer is the Ethernet Standard. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.3 is the standard for connecting computers using a physical connection. The IEEE 802.11 standard is used for Wireless Connections also known as Wi-Fi,
