Explanation of Solution

Difference between Bluetooth network master device and a 802.11 network base station:

Master deviceBase station
Bluetooth devices organize by a Piconet (is an ad-hoc network that connects a wireless user group of device up to 8 slave devices). One of the devices in the Piconet will be the “master” device.Basic service set (BSS) is a fundamental building block of 802.11 architecture. The BSS contain one or more wireless stations or one base station, it also known as Access Point (AP)...
