Hello,
according to taginfo "internet_access=wifi" is used almost 80 times
globally.
Would you agree it is safe to automatically change all of these to
"internet_access=wlan"?
As I understand it, "wifi" means "one of the 802.11 variants" whereas
"wlan" means "any sort of or wireless local area network". However, I
can't think of a single example in the last decade of something other
than 802.11 used for _local_ wireless networking, so I'd say they were
pretty much synonymous, and so no information would be lost.
Can anyone else think of an exception?
Cheers,
Andy
