WPS870G

 

 

BSS

Basic Service Set. A configuration of Access Points that communicate with each other without resorting any infrastructure. Also known as Ad-Hoc networks. Also see ESS.

C

Channel

The part of the wireless spectrum you use when transmitting or receiving wirelessly. Hint: Channel 1 can be a poor choice since it is close to the frequency used by cordless phones.

Client

In a client/server architecture, a client is a computer that requests files or services such as file transfer, remote login, or printing from the server. On an IEEE 802.11b/g wireless LAN, a client is any host that can communicate with the access point. Also called a CPE. A wireless client is also called a “station.” Also see server.

Coaxial Cable

A type of cable consisting of a center wire surrounded by insulation and a grounded shield of braided wire. The shield minimizes electrical and radio frequency interference. Coaxial cable has high bandwidth and can support transmission over long distances.

CPE

Customer Premise Equipment: typically computers, printers, etc, that are connected to the gateway at the subscriber location. CPE can be provided by the subscriber or the cable service provider. Also called a client.

Crossover Cable

A crossover cable is a cable that is used to interconnect two computers by "crossing over" (reversing) their respective pin contacts. A crossover cable is sometimes known as a null modem.

D

DDNS

Dynamic Domain Name System enables you to assign a fixed host and domain name to a dynamic Internet IP address. It is used when you are hosting your own web server, FTP server, or another server behind the router.

Default Gateway

A routing device that forwards traffic not destined to a station within the local subnet.
