PAWN (for short) is our very own unique Wirelapse-ism. Wirelapse is dedicated to providing a place where “somewhat technical’ people can get involved with wireless networking, also known as WiFi or 802.11x. We provide information for free about wireless networking. All of the content that you read here has been carefully collected from reliable sources across the internet.

Among other things, the contributors of wirelapse.net strive to make available to the general public, methods of design, construction, and security of wireless networks. You may notice this site exists neither totally “free” nor completely “for Profit”. We promise you will NEVER see a POP-UP or POP-UNDER advertisement on this site. Even though we have costs, we vow to never pollute your browsing experience. Some tangible costs include domain name, web hosting, legal councel, plus intangible ammounts of personal time invested in various duties. Wirelapse.net also offers products and services related to 802.11x technologies for sale in our “Shopping Cart” area. This helps us recover some of the costs. Our goal is to educate while having FUN, rather than focus wholly upon financial gain.
