hp digital home networking ethernet gateway
Congratulations on your purchase of a HP Digital Home Networking Ethernet Gateway. The Ethernet Gateway is the perfect solution for connecting multiple PCs to your
Your Gateway can be configured as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, which means that it can automatically assign Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to PCs in your Local Area Network (LAN). The Gateway becomes your only visible network device on the Internet.
The Gateway also serves as your Internet firewall, protecting your networked PCs from access by external users. All incoming data is monitored and filtered using a firewall. You can configure your Gateway to permit playing Internet games and video conferencing. You also can use IP filtering to block your users from access to the Internet as needed.
Now all of your network users can enjoy fast broadband Internet access and can share internal data. Link it all together and your network will operate faster than you ever imagined.
