WiFi is the underlying technology for which type of network?

WiFi is the wireless local area networking technology defined by the IEEE 802.11 family. It uses radio waves to connect devices to a local network through access points, enabling mobility and easy access within homes, offices, or public spaces. This fits the description of wireless local area networks based on IEEE 802.11, rather than being a wired Ethernet standard, a secure email protocol, or a cellular wide-area network. Ethernet (IEEE 802.3) is wired, email protocols deal with message transmission, and cellular networks (3G/4G/5G) cover wide-area coverage with different radio technologies. So the best match is wireless local area networks based on IEEE 802.11.
