How the Router Works
The router implements an IP-sharing feature. With only one physical IP address to access the Internet it is
impossible for all computers within the home or office network to use the same IP address to gain access to
the Internet at the same time. However, using the BOSS™, all computers within the home or office network
can access to the Internet even with only one physical IP address. The router transforms one physical IP
address into a range of virtual IP addresses. Each computer within the home or office network will get a
virtual IP address to access to the Internet.
