TrueMobile 1150 Series Network Options
The TrueMobile 1150 Series Wireless Networking
solution enables you to network computers for Internet sharing and
File and Printer sharing. Your network setup will be one of the two options:
In this option, one of the desktop computers acts as a Host. All other
computers on the network access the Internet through the Host
computer. The Host computer must remain on in order for the other
computers on the network to have Internet access.
In this option, the base station device connects directly to the Internet via
the built-in modem or through a broadband connection (cable modem,
xDSL, ISDN). All computers linked together in the network can access
the Internet through the Residential Gateway, access point, or wireless base
station. The network device is always on, so any
computer can access the Internet even if the other computers in the
network are turned off.
