What Is WiFi?

A children's song explaining how WiFi is radio waves — the same kind of EM band the radio uses — bouncing through the air to carry your message.

beep beep beep

What is WiFi? What is WiFi? RADIO WAVES! Riding through the air! What is WiFi? What is WiFi? Same family as the radio station!

[whoosh] The router is a tiny shouter — Sending waves out through the room! [beep] Your phone is a tiny listener — Catching every shout in the room!

What is WiFi? What is WiFi? RADIO WAVES! Riding through the air! What is WiFi? What is WiFi? Router shouts and your phone hears!

The waves bounce off the kitchen wall, Slide right through the wooden door, Fade away across the yard — That's why the signal weakens far!

Radio... microwave... infrared... visible light... All one family — the SPECTRUM is wide! WiFi rides the microwave band — A radio at gigahertz speed!

What is WiFi? What is WiFi? RADIO WAVES! Riding through the air! What is WiFi? What is WiFi? A whole band of the spectrum, right here!
