Physically connect the SOHO 6

The SOHO 6 ships with a “10-seat” license. In other words, the SOHO 6 allows up to ten computers on a network behind the SOHO 6 to access the Internet. More than ten computers can exist on the network and communicate with each other, but only the first ten that attempt to access the Internet are allowed through the SOHO 6. A seat is taken when a computer connects to the Internet. To upgrade your SOHO 6 user license, please visit:
