Internet Sharing Software (ISS) lets multiple PCs on the AnyPoint™
Wireless II Network access the Internet simultaneously, using only one
modem (or other Internet connection) and one Internet account.
Important: If you have installed your AnyPoint Wireless II adapter
into a network through an access point, VPN, or a gateway, you
cannot use ISS and its features.
For most Internet Service Providers (ISPs), the Internet connection is
shared automatically when you install ISS. However, some ISPs (such as
America Online* and AT&T WorldNet*) require extra steps to work with
ISS. Continuous connections, such as cable modems or DSL, also require
special procedures to set up the connection. If you access the Internet
through any of these systems, see the appropriate section below.
Note: If you can't find the ISP or the information you are looking
for, visit the AnyPoint™ Wireless II Network Online Support site at:
www.intel.com/anypoint/support/
In addition to Internet access, AOL* provides other services to its
subscribers. Only the ISS server can access those services through AOL's
software. ISS clients can use Internet programs such as Netscape
Navigator* or Microsoft Internet Explorer* to access the Internet through
the ISS server's connection. Users as ISS clients can also access AOL
services, like e-mail, at AOL's Web site (www.aol.com).
The AnyPoint Internet Sharing Software is compatible with AOL versions
3.0 or higher. To find out which version of AOL you are using:
• Start AOL, and click
Note: AOL versions 5.0 and higher include an option to make AOL
the default Internet application. Do not enable this option.
