Korshub's take
Wi-Fi Fundamentals in Under 30 Minutes
Built as a challenge to compress a subject that can take years to master into a single fast-paced session, this course covers the core building blocks of 802.11 wireless networking. It's an accelerated overview rather than a certification-level deep dive, taught by an instructor who teaches wireless and security professionally worldwide.
Who it's for
Beginners who want a quick, honest introduction to how Wi-Fi actually works before committing to longer, certification-track wireless courses.
Key takeaways
- WLAN architectures and how wireless networks are structured
- 802.11 PHY protocols and the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands
- 802.11 frame format basics
- How CSMA/CA and DCF let stations communicate within a cell
It won't replace a CWNA or CCNA Wireless track, but it's designed to spark enough interest to make you want to go further.
About this course
I teach Wireless, Security, and related technologies professionally, and all over the world. Any subject can take years, and even decades to master and Wireless is definitely one that can take some time if we are being honest.
Recently a couple of colleagues challenge me to see if I could teach a few basic lessons about Wireless and WiFi in under 30 minutes. Get ready to have some fun with an extremely accelerated course covering
WLAN Architectures
802.11 PHY Protocols
2.4GHz ISM and 5GHz UNII/ISM
802.11 Frame Format
CSMA/CA DCF
Stations talking in a cell
While I know this 30 minute lesson won't make you a CCIE Wireless, CWNE, or ACMX, it won't make you a CCNP Wireless, CWSP, CWDP, or CWAP, and honestly wont make you a CCNA Wireless or CWNA, but it just might inspire enough of you to start learning more about wireless and if I can get just a few of you interested with a short crazy video, well I think it was worth the challenge.
