Wi-Fi and the internet are not comparable. They are different things. Wi-Fi is a technology that allows devices to connect wirelessly to a network, while the internet is a global network of computers that allows users to access information and communicate with each other.
Here's a breakdown:
- Internet: Think of it as a vast highway system connecting millions of computers worldwide. You need access to this highway to browse websites, send emails, watch videos, and more.
- Wi-Fi: This is like a local road that connects your devices to your internet service provider's modem or router. It's a wireless way to access the internet.
Think of it this way: you need a car (your device) and a road (Wi-Fi) to get onto the highway (the internet).
In short, Wi-Fi is a means to access the internet, not a substitute for it. You can't have Wi-Fi without the internet, but you can have the internet without Wi-Fi (using an Ethernet cable for example).
