AOSS
AOSS is an abbreviation of
“AirStation One-Touch Secure
System”. AOSS is a technology
developed by BUFFALO that
simplifies connections and settings
for wireless network.
Bit rate
The bit rate is a measure of data
volume expressed in bits per second
(bps).
Broadband
General name for communication
lines that use a broad frequency
bandwidth for sending and receiving
large amounts of video or audio
data at high speed. Currently, ADSL,
CATV, FTTH and other systems are
identified as broadband.
Broadband router
For Internet connections through
ADSL or a cable TV line, devices
called ADSL modems or cable
modems are used. However, for
Internet access from multiple
terminals connected at once, a
broadband router is used.
Byte
One of the fundamental units
used to express digitized data
in computers. Digitized data is
commonly expressed in binary digits
(zeros and ones). A single unit of
data is one bit. One byte consists of
eight bits.
Condensation
Condensation can occur in the
unit when there is a rapid rise in
temperature, as when a heater is
turned on. If condensation occurs,
keep the unit turned off until the
moisture evaporates.
DHCP
Abbreviation of Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol. A system
for automatically allocating
configuration data required for an
Internet connection.
DLNA
Abbreviation of Digital Living
Network Alliance. The DLNA
is a nonprofit organization that
establishes design guidelines for
digital content shared over networks.

DNS
Abbreviation of Domain Name
System. A server that translates
domain names to IP addresses, or IP
addresses to domain names. A DNS
is identified by an IP address. Also
called a “DNS server”.
ID3
ID3 is information (such as the
track name or artist name) that is
recorded in an MP3 file. The ID3 tag
is used by this unit to display track
information for MP3 files.
Internet Service Provider
A company that offers a connection
service to the Internet.
IP address
IP addresses usually comprise
four groups of up to three digits
each, separated by a period (such
as 192.168.239.1). All devices on a
network must have an IP address.
ISO9660
A standard of the International
Organization for Standardization
(ISO) that defines the file system of
CD-ROM media.
LAN
Abbreviation of Local Area Network.
LAN is a general name for networks
set up for communication among
devices including computers,
printers, and fax machines in
relatively small areas such as offices
or buildings.
MP3
Abbreviation of MPEG-1 Audio
Layer3. It is a standard for audio
file compression determined by the
MPEG (Motion Picture Experts
Group), an ISO (International
Organization for Standardization)
working group. It enables
compression of audio files to about
1/10 of the data size of a standard
compact disc. Since the MP3
encoding algorithm is disclosed,
there are various encoders/
decoders that are compliant with
this standard. The MP3 standard
is therefore widely used in the
computer field.
Network key (security key)
An encryption key used to limit the
devices with which communication
can occur. It is used to provide
higher security for devices
communicating via a wireless LAN
router/wireless LAN access point.
Proxy
A program or a server that provides
Internet access to computers within
a firewall or quicker downloading of
web pages.
