Sharing Peripheral Devices; Streaming Audio And Video Files; Playing Multi-Player Games - Gateway Solo 3450 User Manual

Sharing peripheral devices

Each computer that is connected to the network can share the same peripheral
devices, such as a printer. Select print from the computer you are currently
using and your file is automatically printed on your printer no matter where
it is located on your network.

Streaming audio and video files

With a network, you can store audio files (such as the popular .MP3 files) and
video files on any networked computer, then play them on any of the other
computers or devices connected to your network, a process called streaming.
Add a digital music player such as the Gateway Connected Music Player, and
you can integrate your stereo system into your network as well.

Playing multi-player games

With a home network, you can play multi-player games. Load a game like
Microsoft Midtown Madness 2 on your computers, and in minutes, you and your
friends can race in competing cars through the streets of San Francisco.
