The DW6000, in combination with an antenna, can provide satellite connectivity for multiple computers on a wireless or wired (Ethernet) local area network (LAN). After the DW6000 and network are installed, every computer on the network can surf the Internet via the satellite signal.
Note: Connect multiple home computers and laptops to a single DIRECWAY Internet connection at no additional cost. Home networking equipment required but not included. For network setup, support and configuration, contact your network hardware manufacturer and/or operating system software developer (HUGHES is not responsible for home network management or troubleshooting). Simultaneous use of high bandwidth applications by multiple users may result in degradation of speed. Actual speeds may vary. Speed and uninterrupted use of service are not guaranteed.
If you connect the DW6000 to a LAN, you must:
•Install and configure an Ethernet hub (or a router if you have a static IP address) or wireless network base station.
•Install and configure a network interface card (NIC) (also called adapters) in each computer you want to connect to the network. The NICs must be set to
•If using a wired network, connect the computers to the Ethernet hub with Ethernet cable.
