Chapter 1: Introduction
Welcome
Chapter 1: Introduction
Welcome
Thank you for choosing the Phone Adapter with Router. This Phone Adapter will allow your computers to share a
high-speed Internet connection as well as resources, including files and printers. And after you have set up your
Internet phone service, also known as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), you will be able to make phone or fax
calls using the Internet.
How does the Phone Adapter do all of this? By connecting your computers and peripherals, including phones or
fax machines, to the Phone Adapter and connecting the Phone Adapter to your cable or DSL modem, then the
Phone Adapter can direct and control communications for your network. Each of the Phone Adapter’s two
telephone jacks can operate independently, with separate phone service and phone numbers, so you can have
up to two Internet phone lines per Adapter.
But what does all of this mean?
Networks are useful tools for sharing Internet access and computer resources. Multiple computers can share
Internet access, so you don’t need more than one high-speed Internet connection. With Internet phone service,
your Internet access can now be shared by your phones or fax machines as well. You will be able to make phone
calls using the account you set up with your Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP), even while you’re surfing
the Internet. Plus, you can access one printer from different computers and access data located on another
computer’s hard drive. Networks are even used for playing multiplayer video games. So, networks not only are
useful in homes and offices, but also can be fun.
PCs on a wired network create a LAN, or Local Area Network. They are connected with Ethernet cables, which is
why the network is called “wired”.
ethernet
: an IEEE standard network
protocol that specifies how data is
placed on and retrieved from a common
transmission medium.
lan
(local area network): the computers
and networking products that make up
the network in your home or office.
network
: a series of computers or
devices connected for the purpose of data
sharing, storage, and/or transmission
between users.
