INTRODUCTION

With the explosive growth of the Internet, accessing information and services at
any time, day or night has become a standard requirement for most people. The era
of the standalone PC is waning. Networking technology is moving out of the
exclusive domain of corporations and into homes with at least two computers.
This integrated access device combines Internet gateway functions with wireless
LAN and Fast Ethernet switch. Designed for the business and home, it saves you
the cost of installing a separate modem and ISP line for each computer, while
providing ready connection for the users, with or without the network wires.
Broadband network access is also gaining ground. However, allowing more than
two computers to access the Internet at the same time means less affordable, higher
costs. Thus, there is a need to share one legal IP address over a single Internet
TM
connection to link the home with the Internet.
The scarcity of IP addresses and using a shared Internet connection through an
Internet sharing device can solve high network access costs. All linked computers
can make full use of broadband capabilities over such a device.
This device not only comes equipped with a wide range of features, but also can be
installed and configured right out of the box. This device supports a simple local
area network and Internet access share, offering great cost savings.
The local area network connects up home computers while also allowing any of the
computers to access the Internet, share resources, or play online games—the basis
of the family computing lifestyle.

Applications:

TM

wireless or wired (WLAN, LAN and WAN-Internet).
