WaveLAN
WaveLAN was a brand name for a family of wireless networking technology sold by NCR, AT&T, and Lucent, as well as being sold by other companies under OEM agreements. The WaveLAN name debuted on the market in 1988 and was in use into the mid-1990s, when Lucent renamed their products to ORiNOCO.
WaveLAN has been used on two different families of wireless technology:
- Pre- IEEE 802.11 WaveLAN, also called Classic WaveLAN
- IEEE 802.11-compliant WaveLAN, also known as WaveLAN IEEE or ORiNOCO
