802.11b and WiFi

Huh?? I believe both of the protocols you have listed are considered "WiFi". The b seems to be more synonomous with WiFi than b+, whatever that is, unless you're meaning b+g, which is even better than b alone. Hope that helps.

They are both wireless. b+ is proprietary from TI chip
set. Go to the bellow locations for skinny on both.

I hope this helps,
Wi-Fi (short for "wireless fidelity") is the popular term for a high-frequency wireless local area network (WLAN). The Wi-Fi technology is rapidly gaining acceptance in many companies as an alternative to a wired LAN. It can alsobe installed for a home network. Wi-Fi is specified in the 802.11b specification from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and is part of a series of wireless specifications together with 802.11, 802.11a, and 802.11g. All four standards use the Ethernet protocol and CSMA/CA (carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance) for path sharing.
