The working principle of the wireless access point is that the network signal is transmitted through a twisted-pair cable, and after the compilation of AP products, the electrical signal is converted into a radio signal and sent out to form the wireless network coverage. q1) Can I just think of AP as "wireless L2 switch" which also bridge the radio signal network to the wired network q2) can AP work as a standalone if i just want wireless connectivity in the devices connected to it, without an uplink to any router. Access points and wireless LAN cards connect devices in a network using radio signals. Before a device can have wi-fi access, it must announce its capabilities and be granted authorization to join.
