Un point d’accès sans fil (ou Hotspot WiFi) est un lieu dans une zone géographique limitée d’où il est possible à n’importe quel visiteur d’accéder sans fil à un réseau local de communication de données, avec son propre ordinateur ou terminal : les visiteurs peuvent alors utiliser un ordinateur portable, un téléphone WiFi ou bien d’autres périphériques WiFi pour accéder à Internet et, éventuellement, aussi à certaines ressources des réseaux locaux privés mettant ces points d’accès à leur disposition, via l’installation préalable d’un routeur sans fil.
