Why is WLAN Written Instead of Wi-Fi? Today, we’re going to dive into why you might see the term WLAN used instead of Wi-Fi in certain contexts. You may have noticed that some technical documents or specifications refer to WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network), while many consumer-facing devices or advertisements use the term Wi-Fi. Let … Read more
How to Make WLAN Wi-Fi? Today, let me walk you through the process of creating a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) for Wi-Fi. It’s a common requirement for both home and office setups to connect multiple devices wirelessly. I’ll guide you step by step on how to set it up, so you can have your … Read more
What is eNodeB ID? Today, as we continue diving into LTE concepts, let’s talk about eNodeB ID — something that closely ties into what we’ve already discussed about LTE architecture and network elements like cells, tracking areas, and resource blocks. I’ll walk you through what eNodeB ID is, why it’s important, and how it fits … Read more
What is SINR in Networks? Today, let’s understand a term that often comes up when we talk about signal quality in mobile networks — SINR, or Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio. You might remember when we previously explored RSRP and RSRQ; SINR fits right alongside them, helping you and me figure out how clean or usable a signal … Read more
How Can I See If I Am Making a Call via VoLTE? Today, we are going to understand how to check if you’re making a call via VoLTE (Voice over LTE). If you’ve been following along with our previous discussions, you already know that VoLTE allows voice calls to be made over the LTE network … Read more
