5.1 Configuring Multiple Computers to Access the

Internet Simultaneously

Function Overview

The HG232f provides four Ethernet ports and WLAN. Therefore, you can connect

multiple computers to the HG232f over a wireless connection or through the Ethernet

ports. The computers can then access the Internet simultaneously through the routing

function of the HG232f.

Configuration Example

If you have two desktop computers and one laptop with a wireless network adapter

installed, you can configure the desktop computers and laptop to access the Internet

simultaneously. In this example, the laptop is configured to access the Internet over a

wireless connection.

Most HG232f configurations are completed before delivery. You only need to connect

the desktop computers and laptop to the HG232f and set certain Internet access

parameters:

Step 1

Connect the two desktop computers to the HG232f by using network cables.

For details, see chapter 2 "Hardware Installation."

Step 2

Connect the laptop to the HG232f wirelessly by configuring the laptop.

For details, see chapter 4 "Configuration of WLAN Parameters."

Step 3

Set the Internet access parameters of the HG232f to connect the HG232f to the Internet.

For details, see chapter 3 "Configuration of Internet Access Parameters."

Step 4

Configure network connections on the desktop computers and laptop so that these

computers can obtain their respective IP addresses automatically.

----End

If the desktop computers and laptop cannot access the Internet after the preceding configuration,

the network service provider may have linked your Internet access account to the Media Access

Control (MAC) address of your previous network adapter. To remove the restriction, see section

5.7 "Removing the Restriction Caused by the Binding of the Internet Access Account to the MAC

Address."
