InBusiness™ Internet Station
Overview
The Intel
®
InBusiness™ Internet Station is a powerful, yet simple communica-
tions device. When you use the Internet Station, networked computers have
simultaneous access to the Internet through a single Internet account.
The Internet Station Installation CD-ROM detects your network configurations. It
then offers specific setup options, based on your configurations, which help you
set up your network to use the Internet Station. Browser-based configuration
software walks you through a simple setup. This helps you get your Internet
Station up and working without investing a lot of time.
The Auto Disconnect feature makes sure that your ISP connection is off when it is
not in use. The Internet Station’s revolutionary InstantIP™ technology automati-
cally takes care of all network configurations. Two PC Card slots and one serial
port make the product flexible enough to grow with your network changes.
Modem Aggregation, the Internet Station’s newest feature, combines the speed of
two or three analog modems for faster Internet access.
With the Internet Station’s Modem Pooling feature, use additional modems for
faxing and data transmission to online services. Modem Pooling allows shared
access to the modems connected to the Internet Station. You can use the modems
available for pooling in the same way as you would a modem attached to your PC.
