It sounds technical. And it sounds completely official. But that belief is wrong. In this video, we uncover the real meaning behind Wi-Fi, where the name actually came from, and why this misunderstanding affects how people think about internet speed, routers, and connectivity problems. Wi-Fi is not your internet connection. Wi-Fi does not describe speed, quality, or strength. Wi-Fi is not a technical acronym.
