Short for wireless access point. A box of radio equipment with antennae inside it. sometimes you can see them sticking out, sometimes they are hidden inside. Ignorant people think this is something to do with the Internet. It isn't. A WAP connects your _wired_ local area network to one (or more) wireless networks which it broadcasts (emits) in your house, and has nothing at all to do with the internet. It's just that accessing the Internet is a main activity; any WAP will work even if you have no internet connection at all, and then computers both on your wired network and wireless computers and other devices etc can all talk to one another through the WAP. If you have a garbage wireless internet router, then get several WAPsand place them wherever you want to get better signal range, speed and reliability. Do yourself a favour. Some utter lying twat ISPs try and make out that they ‘have the best wireless signal’ which is just garbage and they think we are all fools. Snyone can have good or bad wireless local area LAN setup, it's just about getting the good WAPs and parking them in the right places, nothing to do with internet at all. The ISP’s job is to get stuff in and out of the house down a copper (or very rarely, if you are lucky, fttp ‘fibre to the premises’ fibre optic) link. Getting good WAPs, several if you need to, is your way out of the hellish crap kit that your cheapo wank ISP happened to dump onto you.
God this wireless router from TurdCo Internet is just a pile of dogshit. I have to mend my ways and spend a small amount of cash on getting some decent WAPs and parking them about the place.
