  2. Wake-on-LAN - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wake-on-LAN

    The power supply must meet ATX 2.01 specifications. Laptops powered by the Intel Centrino processor technology or newer [21] (with explicit BIOS/UEFI support) allow waking up the machine using Wake on Wireless LAN (WoWLAN). In most modern PCs, ACPI is notified of the waking up and takes control of the power-up.

  3. Power-on reset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-on_reset

    On an IBM mainframe, a power-on reset (POR) is a sequence of actions that the processor performs either due to a POR request from the operator or as part of turning on power. The operator requests a POR for configuration changes that cannot be recognized by a simple System Reset .

  4. Packet loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet_loss

    Packet loss is either caused by errors in data transmission, typically across wireless networks, [1] [2] or network congestion. [3]: 36 Packet loss is measured as a percentage of packets lost with respect to packets sent. The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) detects packet loss and performs retransmissions to ensure reliable messaging.

    According to Global Marine Systems, "Undersea cable damage is hardly rare—indeed, more than 50 repair operations were mounted in the Atlantic alone last year". While a cut in a cable crossing the Atlantic has "no significant effect" due to the many alternate cables, only a handful of Internet cables serve the Middle East.

  6. Network congestion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_congestion

    Network congestion in data networking and queueing theory is the reduced quality of service that occurs when a network node or link is carrying more data than it can handle. . Typical effects include queueing delay, packet loss or the blocking of new connectio

  7. Synology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synology

    Three years after founding the company, they shifted from exclusively licensed software to adding hardware design and production, [3] since the hardware partners who had licensing the software had inconsistent quality control; [4] diagnosing failures required Synology's active participation, and as a new company, Synology had difficulty in ...

  8. Bandwidth throttling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_throttling

    Limiting the speed of data sent by a data originator (a client computer or a server computer) is much more efficient than limiting the speed in an intermediate network device between client and server because while in the first case usually no network packets are lost, in the second case network packets can be lost / discarded whenever ingoing data speed overcomes the bandwidth limit or the ...

  9. Cable landing point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_landing_point

    Submarine power cables can operate at many kilovolts: for example, the Fenno-Skan power cable operates at 400 kV DC. A cable termination station is the point at which the submarine cable connects into the land-based infrastructure or network. A cable termination station may be the same facility as the cable landing station, or may be many miles ...
