Question

Is Wireless LAN the same as WiFi in a laptop?

Answer 1

In your statement, Wireless = WiFi.   Just to add some detail, You can use your WiFi (enabled) laptop to join and use the resources (internet, printers, etc) available on the Wireless LAN.

Answer 2

Wireless LAN (Local Area network) is basically the same thing as WIFI in a laptop.

Answer 3

Yes. "Wireless Fidelity" implies a connection via a "Local Area Network."

If you want to get technical, the 802.11 standard is an implementation of Ethernet just without wires.

While technically the term "local area network" is a loose term to refer to a collective group of computers connected via a common protocol, it's safe to say that for your question the answer is simply yes.
