    Where did the term “Wi-Fi” originate, what does Wi-Fi stand for, and what does Wi-Fi refer to?

      You know, I don’t think I have ever seen a request for this before! Here is the definition and information from Wi-Fi Planet’s Webopedia:

      I learned a little myself on this one. Thanks.

      Cheers.

      Remember the term “Hi-Fi”? I had to ask my grandpa about that about 10 years ago. It was late 60’s, 70’s terminology for high fidelity sound. HaHaHaHa…etc. That “Hi-Fi” sound has been put to shame by our new sound technology. I cant wait to see “Wi-Fi’s” shamer.
