Wireless LAN: A local area network that operates over the air via radio transmissions instead of over copper or fiber optic cables. Some examples of wireless LAN standards include 802.11a and 802.11b.
Many people have used WLANs to set up Neighborhood Area Networks (NANs) to share a single high speed (expensive) access point with neighbors and nearby businesses.
