PipeRider® Cable Modem User's Guide HM200c/HM201c
Features and Benefits
In addition to the benefits provided by cable modem technology itself -- such as speed, instant Internet access,
and the support of multiple computers -- the PipeRider cable modem offers even more features to make your life
easier.
Installation Ease and Adaptability
You have the option of connecting the PipeRider cable modem to your computer with either a USB connection (if
supported by your computer) or an Ethernet connection. The plug & play aspect of USB simplifies installation,
requiring only a cable plug-in and the installation of a driver (supplied on this CD). An Ethernet connection, which
requires that a Network Interface Card be installed in your computer, allows you to connect up to 15 computers
(Windows only) to a single PipeRider cable modem with the use of an Ethernet hub.
Security
When you are not actively using the Internet, the PipeLock® feature enables you to suspend communication
between your computer and the Internet, ensuring total security. When PipeLock is ON, the PipeRider cable
modem remains logged on to the cable network, but direct communication between your computer and the
Internet is blocked. This prevents outsiders from gaining access to any information on your computer. With a
simple press of the PipeLock button, you can quickly and easily turn PipeLock ON and OFF.With PipeLock, there's
no need to turn off your computer or your cable modem, even when you're not there.
