Completing the Configuration
Your gateway is now configured to provide Internet access for your network. When your gateway and PCs are configured correctly, your gateway automatically accesses the Internet when one of your LAN devices requires access. It is not necessary to run a dialer or login application such as Dial-Up Networking or Enternet to connect, log in, or disconnect. These functions are performed by the gateway as needed
