  2. Dying gasp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dying_gasp

    The dying gasp message will end the session and a new session will be able to be made as soon as power returns and the modem retrains. [ citation needed ] Dying gasp is referenced in section 7.1.2.5.3 of ITU-T Recommendation G.991.2 (12/2003) as the Power Status bit.

  3. Troubleshoot a broadband internet connection - AOL Help

    help.aol.com/articles/troubleshooting-a...

    Check the physical connection - A loose cable or cord can often be the cause of a connection problem. Make sure everything is securely connected to the wall and device. 3. Reboot your modem/router - Sometimes the old "turn it off and on again" approach actually does work! Just wait about five minutes before turning it back on to make sure ...

  4. Received signal strength indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Received_signal_strength...

    RSSI is an indication of the power level being received by the receiving radio after the antenna and possible cable loss. Therefore, the greater the RSSI value, the stronger the signal. Thus, when an RSSI value is represented in a negative form (e.g. −100), the closer the value is to 0, the stronger the received signal has been.

  5. NO CARRIER - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NO_CARRIER

    Three network interface widgets (2 Ethernet and 1 WiFi) showing two network interfaces being up, one being down with no cable plugged in (hence: "no carrier"), underlined in red. NO CARRIER (capitalized) is a word code transmitted from a modem to its attached device (typically a computer ), indicating the modem is not (or no longer) connected ...

  6. Data Carrier Detect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Carrier_Detect

    Data Carrier Detect (DCD) or Carrier Detect (CD) is a control signal present inside an RS-232 serial communications cable that goes between a computer and another device, such as a modem. This signal is a simple "high/low" status bit that is sent from a data communications equipment (DCE) to a data terminal equipment (DTE), i.e., from the modem ...

  7. PS-ON Signal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PS-ON_Signal

    PS-ON Signal is a pin on a 20-pin or 24-pin ATX-specified power connector used to turn a personal computer power supply unit on/off. The PS_ON pin is normally pulled high in an open-circuit, but will turn on the power supply when it is pulled low, by shorting it to the common signal (COM).

  8. Signal strength in telecommunications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_strength_in...

    The electric field strength at a specific point can be determined from the power delivered to the transmitting antenna, its geometry and radiation resistance. Consider the case of a center-fed half-wave dipole antenna in free space, where the total length L is equal to one half wavelength (λ/2).

  9. Link budget - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_budget

    A link budget is an accounting of all of the power gains and losses that a communication signal experiences in a telecommunication system; from a transmitter, through a communication medium such as radio waves, cable, waveguide, or optical fiber, to the receiver.
