Web page
A web site file typically containing text, graphics and hyperlinks
(cross-references) to the other pages on that web site, as well as
to pages on other web sites. When a user accesses a web site,
the first page that is displayed is called the home page. See also
hyperlink, web site.
Web site A computer on the Internet that distributes information to (and
gets information from) remote users through web browsers. A
web site typically consists of web pages that contain text,
graphics, and hyperlinks. See also hyperlink, web page.
WEP Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encrypts data over WLANs. Data
is encrypted into blocks of either 64 bits length or 128 bits length.
The encrypted data can only be sent and received by users with
access to a private network key. Each PC on your wireless network
must be manually configured with the same key as your device in
order to allow wireless encrypted data transmissions.
Eavesdroppers cannot access your network if they do not know
your private key. WEP is considered to be a low security option.
Wireless Wireless is a term used to describe telecommunications in which
electromagnetic waves (rather than some form of wire) carry the
signal over part or all of the communication path. See also
wireless LAN.
Wireless LAN
A wireless LAN (WLAN) is one in which a mobile user can
connect to a local area network (LAN) through a wireless (radio)
connection. A standard, IEEE 802.11, specifies the technologies
for wireless LANs.
WPA Wi-Fi Protected Access
WPA is an initiative by the IEEE and Wi-Fi Alliance to address the
security limitations of WEP. WPA provides a stronger data
encryption method (called Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP)).
It runs in a special, easy-to-set-up home mode called Pre-Shared
Key (PSK) that allows you to manually enter a pass phrase on all
the devices in your wireless network. WPA data encryption is based
on a WPA master key. The master key is derived from the pass
phrase and the network name (SSID) of the device.
It provides improved data encryption and stronger user
authentication. The mode of WPA supported no your device is
called Pre-Shared Key (PSK), which allows you to manually enter a
type of key called a pass phrase.
WWW
World Wide Web
Also called (the) Web. Collective term for all web sites anywhere
in the world that can be accessed via the Internet.
