Is it mandatory to have firewall software in WIFI
and in what category does WAP falls in hardware or software? As it not mentioned in Dianka last post.

A remote repeater interfaces with a switch or access focus. Frequently called sign supporters or range expanders, repeaters serve as a two-way hand-off station for remote radio signs.

The basic wireless, peer-to-peer network consists of these components:Originally Posted by Dianka
Wireless router: The heart of the wireless network is the wireless router. Like a wire-based network, the hub is a central location that all computers connect to, providing the computers with network access. The wireless hubs now available also serve as routers. Well, officially, wireless hubs are gateways, not routers, but they’re called routers. They’re also called access points, so get used to that term as well. Despite the nomenclature confusion, all you need to know is that the hub/router/access point is a smart little beast that helps manage wireless connections and also helps connect your wireless network to the Internet.
Wire-based connections: Almost every wireless router I’ve seen has one or more standard, wire-based Ethernet port. One port is used to connect the router to a broadband modem. Other Ethernet ports might be also available, allowing you to connect standard wire-based networking to the wireless hub.
Wireless NIC: Your computer needs a wireless network information card, or NIC, to talk with the wireless router. A laptop comes standard with a wireless NIC, but for a desktop PC you have to get a wireless NIC as an option. It’s installed internally as an expansion card, or you can use one of the various plug-in USB wireless NICs. That’s pretty much it for the infrastructure type of wireless network. The ad hoc type of wireless network is basically a group of wireless computers connected with each other. An ad hoc network has no central hub or router. Instead, all its computers can directly access other computers’ files and shared resources. They may or may not have Internet access, but that’s not the point of the ad hoc network.
Hardware Minimum Requirements
Processor: Intel Core i3 and above (such as Intel Core i5, or Intel Core i7) OR AMD FX 4100 and above, or A6 and above
Hard Drive: 128GB+ Solid State Disk (SSD) with at least 50GB of free disk space
Memory: 8 GB
Wired Networking: Ethernet LAN Port or USB Ethernet Adapter/Dongle
Wireless Networking: 802.11n
Operating System Requirements
Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10
Mac OS X 10.12 (Sierra), Mac OS X 10.13 (High Sierra), Mac OS X 10.14 (Mojave).
WiFi 6
The new 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard was announced in April 2018, with the headline feature that it will support transfer speeds of up to 10Gbps – almost 10 times faster than previous mainstream standards. For everything on WiFi 6, including network speeds and availability. WiFi6 also supports connecting more devices at once. This might not have been an issue for you at home. But, when you’re out in public almost anywhere, there’s free WiFi to be had. Ever notice how if it was a crowded coffee shop, the data crawled? That will be improved by two technologies WiFi 6 will use: orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) and multi-user multiple inputs, multiple output (MU-MIMO).
Impressive.

Ad hoc wireless connection – connection of a computer or peripheral to a network without the use of a wireless router or a router and a wireless access point; typically used for smaller networks, such as a home network.
802.xx standard – Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) family of networking standards that covers the physical layer specifications of technologies from Ethernet to wireless. For example, 802.11 covers Wireless Local Area Network Media Access Control and Physical Layer specifications.
