Security
Enterprise WLAN solutions provide maximum security and offer cost-effective management for user accounts. Unlikely in home wireless solution, where all connected computers share the same password, enterprise WLAN solution offers chance to use user-based authentication. With 802.1x/EAP support it is easy to allow or deny access to network to a single user at a time. That saves a lot of time and money – if a person is leaving the company or there has been security breach, it is no longer needed to change WLAN password at every computer at the company.
