Using Internet LanBridge
Internet LanBridge software is automatically configured to work with most
Internet connection hardware such as cable modems, xDSL, ISDN, etc.
In a Internet LanBridge session, the server PC connects to the Internet as
usual. Once the Internet connection is established, any networked client PCs
can automatically access the Internet by launching their web browsers or mail
programs.
The Internet LanBridge server PC must be fully booted before any other net-
worked PCs can log on to the network. It is strongly recommended that you
leave the server PC powered on at all times while you are using your network.
Turn it off only when you end your networking session.
When you log on to the Internet over the phoneline network, it may take a
few minutes before your clients' Internet stream is clean and running smooth-
ly. If you want multiple email accounts for each user on your network, you
must first determine if your Internet Service Provider will allow you to have
multiple mail addresses on one dial-up account. You can either call them,
send them an email from an existing account, or visit the ISP's website for
more information.
After establishing multiple email addresses, you can then configure each
client’s email program to go directly to a specific email box when checking
for Internet messages.

You must use the

proxy software on all of your networked PCs to
avoid system crashes and an unstable Internet connection. If you wish
to use LanBridge on PCs previously installed with other proxy server
software, you must uninstall all other software before beginning
LanBridge installation.
