A company must be a member of the Wi-Fi Alliance® to have its products reviewed for certification.
The Wi-Fi Alliance® has instituted a testing program that outlines how member products are tested to certify that they are interoperable with other Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ products. Products awarded Wi-Fi Certification have undergone strict, rigorous and independent testing by one of our Authorized Test Laboratories. When a product successfully passes the test, the manufacturer or vendor is granted the right to use the Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ logo on that product and its corresponding collateral material.
