5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for businesses considering WLANs, June 22, 2003
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
If you are considering a wireless network for clients in your restaurant, coffee shop, or bookstore, this is a great reference. The book clearly presents a picture of how cellular and wireless LAN technology will work together to form an infrastructure of hotspot networks.

The author emphasizes security and the use of the IEEE 802.11b networks. He is very thorough in his description of the practical use of the technology.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book! A must have!!!, March 13, 2003
By "mslotin" (Tucson, AZ) - See all my reviews
A great book. A must have on the shelf of any professional. This book is a very comprehensive tool for learning any aspect of hotspot networks. It is an excellent reference source for anyone who is involved in the business and technology of today's hot spots networks.

I cannot say enough good things about Minoli, he covers his bases really well. I would suggest this book to anyone looking to gain some in-depth knowledge on hotspot networks.

1.0 out of 5 stars Simply the worst.
Hotspot Networks by Daniel Minoli may simply be the worst book I have ever read. I just finished it and quite frankly I'm mad. I feel cheated. Read more
