    Shared Internet Access. All users on the LAN or WLAN can access the Internet through the TW100-BRV304, using only a single external IP Address. The local (invalid) IP Addresses are hidden from external sources. This process is called NAT (Network Ad- dress Translation).
  • Page 6: Advanced Internet Functions

    • DHCP Server Support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a dynamic IP address to PCs and other devices upon request. The TW100-BRV304 can act as a DHCP Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN. • Multi Segment LAN Support.
