I want to change iphone wifi to wlan is it possible?

[HAMMERS]

I am TRYING to connect this mini wireless surveillance this instructions use a term I do not know
{ from my iphone screen it reads }
My phone failed to search the AP of my camera
it shows failure when my phone has actually been connected to the AP hotspot of my camera.


It reads that I have to connect to WLAN
my iPhone 11 Pro Max connects then fails
then my wifi from my router kicks back and not I connected back to my router
So Frustrating
I am open to your suggestions

[choixero]

So wlan is the router and wifi is radiowave? Help me out im still confused

[mukiamos]

Great presentation. My take away is that Wifi is Just a type of WLAN(IEEE 802.11) like others ( HiperLan(ETSI))

LAN: what a good day
WLAN: …
LAN: wait…
WLAN: hello I am called WLAN stands for wireless local area network and I know you LAN local area network it’s like adding the W to you wired to wireless
LAN: how do you know me
WLAN: Internet It’s like I’m Wi-Fi and your Ethernet but It’s local network area
