Encryption:
 A security method that uses a specific algorithm to alter the data 
transmitted, thus prevent others from knowing the information transmitted. 
ESS:
 ESS stands for “Extended Service Set”. More than one BSS is configured 
to become Extended Service Set. LAN mobile users can roam between different 
BSSs in an ESS. 
ESSID:
 The unique identifier that identifies the ESS. In infrastructure association, 
the stations use the same ESSID as AP’s to get connected. 
Ethernet:
 A popular local area data communications network, originally 
developed by Xerox Corp., that accepts transmission from computers and 
terminals.    Ethernet operates on a 10/100 Mbps base transmission rate, using 
a shielded coaxial cable or over shielded twisted pair telephone wire. 
Fragmentation: 
When transmitting a packet over a network medium, 
sometimes the packet is broken into several segments, if the size of packet 
exceeds that allowed by the network medium. 
Fragmentation Threshold: 
The Fragmentation Threshold defines the number 
of bytes used for the fragmentation boundary for directed messages. The 
purpose of "Fragmentation Threshold" is to increase the transfer reliability thru 
cutting a MAC Service Data Unit (MSDU) into several MAC Protocol Data Units 
(MPDU) in smaller size. The RF transmission can not allow to transmit too big 
frame size due to the heavy interference caused by the big size of transmission 
frame. But if the frame size is too small, it will create the overhead during the 
transmission. 
Gateway:
 a device that interconnects networks with different, incompatible 
communication protocols. 
HEX: 
Hexadecimal, HEX, consists of numbers from 0 – 9 and letters from A – F. 
IEEE: 
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, which is the largest 
technical professional society that promotes the development and application of 
electrotechnology and allied sciences for the benefit of humanity, the 
advancement of the profession. The IEEE fosters the development of standards 
that often become national and international standards. 
Infrastructure:
 An infrastructure network is a wireless network or other small 
network in which the wireless network devices are made a part of the network 
through the Access Point which connects them to the rest of the network. 
ISM Band:
 The FCC and their counterparts outside of the U.S. have set aside 
bandwidth for unlicensed use in the ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) band.   
Spectrum in the vicinity of 2.4GHz, in particular, is being made available 
worldwide.
