What is local wifi?

Its basically the wifi connection thats around you.

 

Nope. They don't have to be connected to the same network.

 

Wifi is the best thing to happen since the Internet itself. And Crex you are correct!

 

Generally, doesn't "Local Wi-Fi" refer to Bonjour, where you can play other people as long as their device is connected to the same Wi-Fi access point as yours?

 

Local Wi-Fi is limited to players within range of the Wi-Fi hotspot you're using. So they have to be using the same hotspot to play.

 

Local wifi is you and your friends at your house playing on your wi-fi. Online multiplayer is where you actually play against other people in different parts of the world.

Ex. Read the real racing 2 info thing. It advertises both it's online multiplayer and local wi-fi capabilities.

 

I like how the last 7 people other than me have said the same thing.

 

Actually you and crex were misinforming cupcake, local wifi is not online around the world, it's only those devices connected to the hotspot or router near you.

Again the example that people mentioned - playing wirelessly with people at your house or at a cafe or somewhere with a wifi hotspot, is local wifi. It is not an international/cross country Internet connection.

 

I know that. I said wifi was the best thing since internet. That doesn't mean that it is global

 

Uh... Good for you?

 

ya before you make a smart comment can you please read ahead

 

Everyone else was saying that Local Wi-Fi was around the world (except for Mew2468, who posed it as a question anyway). You praised crex for saying the wrong thing.

Try not to be so quick a dick.

 

Sorry for being wrong cupcake!

 

WiFi is all around you if you have it.
So technically he is right.
So sorry i was somewhat wrong?

 

local wifi would be like lets say your router or at mcdonalds and you and your friend want to play a online game together you choose local wifi and woolah you two are playing


hope this helped

 

Later he said that they don't have to be connected to the same network, which is incorrect. That network, or Wi-Fi hotspot, is what connects players to each other in Local Multi.

You said he was correct after that. Sorry if I misunderstood which of his points you referred to. But it would have been nice if you had avoided trying to insult my lack of reading ahead when, in fact, I had read, and I judged that the question had not been answered thoroughly enough.

Now, allow me to hop off of my soapbox and get back to SWGB.

 

Can someone explain played within country or within house..
