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.  
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 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: 
Broadband Internet access:  
Several computers can share one high-speed broadband connection 
(LAN and WAN-Internet).
