DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). A utility that enables a server to dynamically assign IP addresses from a predefined list and limit their time of use so that they can be reassigned. Without DHCP, an IT Manager would have to manually enter in all the IP addresses of all the computers on the network. When DHCP is used, whenever a computer logs onto the network, it automatically gets an IP address assigned to it.

Dial-up. A communication connection via the standard telephone network, or Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS).

Diversity antenna - A type of antenna system that uses two antennas to maximize reception and transmission quality and reduce interference.

The program works behind the scenes to facilitate surfing the Web with alpha versus numeric addresses. A DNS server converts a name like mywebsite.com to a series of numbers like 107.22.55.26. Every website has its own specific IP address on the Internet.
