Access Point
An access point or wireless access point refers to the device in computer networking using which wireless networks can be connected to a wired network. The device is most often deployed in large offices, companies, etc.
Working
An Ethernet cable is used by the access points for building up a connection with a wired router and then providing Wi-Fi in that particular area. In case of need to extend the Wi-Fi connection to another place in your area, and the router is not available then you can install an access point and make a connection with the router through an Ethernet cable.
Access Point vs Range Extender
Wireless communication takes place over free space through RF (radio frequency), one device, the Transmitter sends a signal to another device, Receiver. Two devices (transmitter and receiver) must use the same frequency (or channel) to be able to communicate with each other. In this article, we will see, the basic difference between Access Point and Range Extender.
