802.11a
802.11a is an established IEEE standard for wireless networking that improves on the performance limitations of 802.11b. 802.11a is a relatively high cost solution found in some business networks.

802.11b
802.11b is an industry-standard technology for wireless communication via Ethernet. Because of its low cost and established history, 802.11b is commonly found in home networks.
