  2. Wireless access point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_access_point

    Wireless access point. [1] [2] In computer networking, a wireless access point, or more generally just access point ( AP ), is a networking hardware device that allows other Wi-Fi devices to connect to a wired network or wireless network. As a standalone device, the AP may have a wired connection to a switch or router, but, in a wireless router ...

  3. Service set (802.11 network) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_set_(802.11_network)

    A mesh basic service set ( MBSS) is a self-contained network of mesh stations that share a mesh profile, defined in 802.11s. [9] Each node may also be an access point hosting its own basic service set, for example using the mesh BSS to provide Internet access for local users. In such a system, the BSS created by the access point is distinct ...

  4. Single-channel architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-channel_architecture

    Single-channel architecture. In computer networking, single-channel architecture (SCA) is the design of a wireless network in such a way that the wireless client sees a single point of access to the network. This design utilizes a centralized controller to decide which access point (AP) will be used to communicate with a client device.

  5. Access Point Name - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access_Point_Name

    An Access Point Name ( APN) is the name of a gateway [1] between a mobile network ( GSM, GPRS, 3G, 4G and 5G) and another computer network, frequently the public Internet. [2] A mobile device making a data connection must be configured with an APN to present to the carrier. The carrier will then examine this identifier to determine what type of ...

  6. Service Access Point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_Access_Point

    A Service Access Point ( SAP) is an identifying label for network endpoints used in Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) networking. The SAP is a conceptual location at which one OSI layer can request the services of another OSI layer. As an example, PD-SAP or PLME-SAP in IEEE 802.15.4 can be mentioned, where the medium access control (MAC) layer ...

  7. Single point of failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_point_of_failure

    Single point of failure. In this diagram the router is a single point of failure for the communication network between computers. A single point of failure ( SPOF) is a part of a system that, if it fails, will stop the entire system from working. [1] SPOFs are undesirable in any system with a goal of high availability or reliability, be it a ...

  8. Wireless ad hoc network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_ad_hoc_network

    Wireless ad hoc network. A wireless ad hoc network [1] ( WANET) or mobile ad hoc network ( MANET) is a decentralized type of wireless network. The network is ad hoc because it does not rely on a pre-existing infrastructure, such as routers or wireless access points. Instead, each node participates in routing by forwarding data for other nodes.

  9. Femtocell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femtocell

    Femtocell. In telecommunications, a femtocell is a small, low-power cellular base station, typically designed for use in a home or small business. A broader term which is more widespread in the industry is small cell, with femtocell as a subset. It typically connects to the service provider's network via the Internet through a wired broadband ...
