Transmission of waves take place in the electromagnetic
Answer:
Transmission of waves take place in the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum. The carrier frequency of the data is expressed in cycles per second called hertz(Hz). Low frequency signals can travel for long distances through many obstacles but can not carry a high bandwidth of date while high frequency signals can travel for shorter distances through few obstacles and carry a narrow bandwidth. Also the noise effect on the signal is inversely proportional to the power of the radio transmitter.
How can you find out who is connecting to your wireless internet?
It depends on the kind of router you have. If you have a westell, it would tell you when you put in 192.168.1.254 as your URL. Linksys routers dont tell you but, you could put security on the router so only your household can acess it. I say Wep is best as a security. For any other kind of router, type in 192.168.1.1 in the Url. admin is the default password. Hope this helps.
