Techopedia Explains Wi-Fi Enabled

Experts have defined Wi-Fi-enabled devices as devices with some kind of support for wireless Internet connection. Early devices had internal or external cards that helped users connect to wireless systems, where users often had to manually connect to a local wireless network. Newer devices often have Wi-Fi-enabling features that connect to a network automatically if it has already been cleared as a trusted network.
