computer without special tools.

Resume

of the suspension states.
ROM
Read Only Memory. A form of memory in which information is stored by physically altering the material. Data stored
in this way can not be changed by your notebook and does not require power to maintain it.
SDRAM

Shared key authentication
802.11 network authentication method in which the AP sends the client device a challenge text packet that the client
must then encrypt with the correct WEP key and return to the AP. If the client has the wrong key or no key,
authentication will fail and the client will not be allowed to associate with the AP. Shared key authentication is not
considered secure, because a hacker who detects both the clear-text challenge and the same challenge encrypted
with a WEP key can decipher the key.
