When you make a long distance telephone call from your home to a relative far away, you are creating a private
network. You can hold a conversation, and exchange information about the happenings on opposite sides of the
countr y, or the continent, that you are mutually interested in. When your next door neighbor picks up the phone
to call her daughter at college, at the same time you are talking to your relatives, your calls don't overlap, but
each is separate and private. Neither house has a direct wire to the places they call. Both share the same lines
on the telephone poles (or underground) on the street.

Computers can do the same thing; it's called Vir tual Private Networks (VPNs). Equipped with Netopia R310s, a
single computer or private network (LAN) can establish a private connection with another computer or private
network over the public network (Internet).
single computer or private network (LAN) can establish a private connection with another computer or private
network over the public network (Internet).
The Netopia R310 can be used in VPNs either to initiate the connection or to answer it. When used in this way,
the routers are said to be tunnelling through the public network (Internet). The advantages are that, like your
long distance phone call, you don't need a direct line between one computer or LAN and the other, but use the
local connections, making it much cheaper; and the information you exchange through your tunnel is private and
secure.
