use, and
A Hotwire phone filter is installed on every telephone on the same line as the

HomeLink (for ReachDSL v1 Modems Only)
HomeLink is a feature that provides peer-to-peer communications for PCs attached to
different Hotwire 6310 ReachDSL v1 modems at the customer premises.
For example, PCs that are not connected to the same physical Ethernet LAN can now
take advantage of the resources of the primary office computer. With the Microsoft
Windows operating system, multiple end-user systems can share resources, including:
File sharing
Print sharing
Secondary computer backup
To enable the sharing of resources and review security considerations, see Microsoft’s
Web site at
www.microsoft.com
.
In this example of HomeLink, the PC in the family room could use the office printer.
Increasing the Number of End-User Systems
A single end-user system is attached to the Hotwire 6310 ReachDSL v1 Modem by
using an Ethernet crossover cable. To increase the number of end-user systems,
connect all the PCs to an Ethernet hub using a straight-through cable.
On one line, the ReachDSL v1 system provides the capability to use up to four Hotwire
6310 ReachDSL v1 modems and 32 end-user systems in any combination.
