    The Thuraya IP Voyager works with your computer using an Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection much like commercially available wireless routers. Note that the Wi-Fi Access Point in the Thuraya IP Voyager uses a separate subnet and DHCP server than the wired Ethernet port. An internal router allows IP traffic to flow seamlessly between the two subnets and out over the satellite link.
