Overview
The Intel® InBusiness™ Internet Station is a powerful, yet simple communica-
tions device. When you use the Internet Station, networked computers have
simultaneous access to the Internet through a single Internet account.
The Internet Station Installation CD-ROM detects your network configurations. It
then offers specific setup options, based on your configurations, which help you
set up your network to use the Internet Station. Browser-based configuration
software walks you through a simple setup. This helps you get your Internet
Station up and working without investing a lot of time.
The Auto Disconnect feature makes sure that your ISP connection is off when it is
not in use. The Internet Station’s revolutionary InstantIP™ technology automati-
cally takes care of all network configurations. Two PC Card slots and one serial
port make the product flexible enough to grow with your network changes.
Modem Aggregation, the Internet Station’s newest feature, combines the speed of
two or three analog modems for faster Internet access.
With the Internet Station’s Modem Pooling feature, use additional modems for
faxing and data transmission to online services. Modem Pooling allows shared
access to the modems connected to the Internet Station. You can use the modems
available for pooling in the same way as you would a modem attached to your PC.

New Technologies
The Internet Station offers many new technologies that make your company’s
Internet access easier to manage.
InstantIP technology
InstantIP technology is a powerful feature of the Internet Station. It provides
simplified setup and administration of complicated Internet addresses. The
InstantIP technology design allows both beginner and experienced users to make
their network Internet-ready in minutes. InstantIP technology saves money on
additional software and Internet addresses that you may have to purchase. It also
provides advanced security features that protect computers, servers, and files on
the local network from external intrusions such as hackers on the Internet.
InstantIP technology combines four key functions: Dynamic Host Control
Protocol (DHCP), Network Address Translation (NAT), Domain Name Services
(DNS), and Dynamic Addressing.
DHCP
Dynamic Host Control Protocol is a standard that dynamically allocates
or leases Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to individual computers on the
local network. The Internet Station has a pool of addresses pre-installed.
Choose to use this range of addresses or a range that you have already set
up on your network. DHCP also configures the computers to automati-
cally use the Internet Station as their gateway to the Internet. The
alternative to DHCP is to manually configure the TCP/IP settings of
every computer on the network.
NAT
Network Address Translation translates IP addresses on the private
network (the Local Area Network) through a single IP address used by
the Internet Station. In other words, while multiple users are accessing
the Internet through the product, the public side (the Internet) only sees
the address of the Internet Station. When used in combination with
Intel® InBusiness™ Internet Station
7
DHCP, NAT alleviates the cost and complexity of having an IP address
for every computer on the network.
DNS
Domain Name Services simplifies Internet usage by mapping domain
names, a unique name that identifies the Internet site, to IP addresses, a
unique Internet Protocol number. It allows users to set up a distinct
domain name for a group of computers or other resource. DNS, for
example, allows the user to enter the more familiar domain name,
istation, instead of the IP address, 192.168.42.254, to communicate with
the Internet Station.
Dynamic Addressing
Dynamic Addressing on the Internet Station automatically accepts an IP
address assigned by your ISP every time you dial in. It also eliminates
complex configuration of the box. You can configure the Internet Station
to accept static addressing. Static addressing uses the same IP address
each time the Internet Station connects to your ISP.
Benefits of InstantIP technology
Cost Savings: requires less time and technical assistance
Increased Network Security: the outside only sees the Internet Station address
Simple IP Address Administration: automatic setup and maintenance
Flexibility: allows for dynamic and static configuration
To read more about InstantIP technology, access the white paper at http://
support.intel.com/support/inbusiness/internetstation.
Modem Aggregation
Modem Aggregation, a new feature for the Internet Station, improves the Internet
Station’s ability to increase the speed of access to the Internet. Modem Aggrega-
tion works by combining the speeds of 2-3 analog modems attached to the
Internet Station. When you want to send or receive information through the
Internet, the Internet Station detects which modem is free and uses that line. The
information you are sending or receiving does not have to wait in a queue until a
single modem’s line is free.
We refer to this technology as Multilink Protocol over Analog Lines and Analog
Bonding. To use the Modem Aggregation feature, your ISP must support Multilink
8
Intel® InBusiness™ Internet Station
technologies. If the ISP supports Multilink, you need to consider any additional
charges for its use.
Benefits of Modem Aggregation
Faster Internet and Information Transfer Access: decrease time spent on tasks
Readily Available Hardware: analog modems are readily available
Cost Savings: no need to pay for ISDN to increase access speed
Modem Pooling
Modem Pooling allows all users connected to the network access to the modems
connected to the Internet Station. Use extra modems for fax, data transfer, etc.
When you need to access a modem, select the program you want to use for your
task (DialUp Network, Microsoft Fax, etc.). The Modem Pooling software locates
an available modem and sends your file to it as if the modem where attached to
your PC. If you choose to use the Modem Pooling feature, you must assign at
least one of your modems for that purpose. Modems cannot be used for Internet
access and pooling at the same time. Each computer that will access the modem
pool needs to have the Modem Pooling software installed.
Benefits of Modem Pooling
Cost Savings: fewer modems and telephone lines
Office Wide Access to Modems for Fax and Data Transfer: easier task manage-
ment
Auto Connect/Disconnect
The Auto Connect/Disconnect feature makes sure that the connection to the ISP is
available when needed and off when not in use. The Internet Station configuration
looks for packets of information meant for the Internet. When the Internet Station
detects a packet, it automatically dials the ISP. Once connected a timer starts and
counts down to zero. When the timer reaches zero the Internet Station automati-
cally disconnects.
Benefits of Auto Disconnect
Cost Savings: do not pay for continuous access to ISP
Automatic Connection and Disconnection to the ISP: ease of account maintenance
To read more about Auto Disconnect technology, access the white paper at http://
support.intel.com/support/inbusiness/internetstation.

Before You Begin
Before you begin to connect the Internet Station hardware or install the software,
you must have your hardware, software, and ISP services available. The Specifi-
cations and Compatibility section lists many options that the Internet Station
supports. Use these lists to make your hardware and software choices.
To configure the Internet Station you need a PC that uses Microsoft Windows 95,
98, or Windows NT 4.0 operating system. The PC must have a compatible web
browser. Compatible browsers are Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.01 and Netscape
Navigator or Communicator 4.06. The Internet Station Installation CD-ROM
contains a copy of the Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.01. If you do not have a
browser and choose to use Microsoft Internet Explorer, install it from the Installa-
tion CD-ROM.
To access the Internet you need
•
•
•
•
an Internet Service Provider (ISP) account.
an analog modem or ISDN terminal adapter.
a dedicated telephone or ISDN line.
computers connected to an Ethernet network.
ØNote: Modem Pooling and Modem Aggregation
The Internet Station supports up to three modems. Only one modem is required
for Internet access. To use Modem Aggregation, install up to three analog
modems for faster Internet access. Use the other modems for faxing and data
transmission to online services. Modem Pooling allows shared access to the
modems connected to the Internet Station. You can use the modems available
for pooling in the same way as you would a modem attached to your PC.
Order an ISP account
The first step is to order your ISP account. The ISP you select must use technolo-
gies compatible with the way you want to use your Internet Station. Review the
Internet Station features in the Overview section and make your decisions about
their use before you choose your ISP.
10
Intel® InBusiness™ Internet Station
If you don’t have an ISP account
Contact the Internet Service Provider (ISP) of your choice and establish an
account. Use the ISP panel of the Installation Poster to make sure you have all the
information you need for on-line setup.
ØTips for selecting an ISP
Check with your current long distance carrier to see what ISP services are
available.
Look in the Yellow Pages for a local ISP.
Check the rates and options offered by each ISP to find one that best fits your
needs.
The ISP panel of the Installation Poster provides a place to enter information
you will need for setup. Make sure the ISP gives you the information you need to
complete the ISP information.
If you already have an ISP account
Review the ISP panel of the Installation Poster included in your information
packet to make sure you have all the information requested. If you are unsure
about any information, contact your ISP and ask for help with the form. You will
need this information for on-line setup.
Order telephone lines
If your ISP and local telephone company both support ISDN lines, you can use
ISDN services. Whether you decide to have an ISDN line or analog lines, you
must have dedicated outside lines.
ØTips to help you decide
ISDN lines give you faster data transfers.
ISDN is usually more expensive. The phone rates, equipment costs, and ISP
rates are usually higher.
ISDN is more difficult to set up.
Telephone companies may have long lead-times for ISDN line installation.
Set up the Internet Station now with an analog telephone line. Later, you if you
choose, update to an ISDN line.
Use analog telephone lines and combine modem speed with Modem Aggrega-
tion for faster data transfer.
Intel® InBusiness™ Internet Station
11
Order an ISDN line
If you choose to use an ISDN line, the ISDN panel of the installation poster helps
you gather the information you need for setup.
The ISDN panel of the installation poster guides you through ordering an ISDN
phone line. Use the screen designated for your location. Use the North American
worksheet if you are in the United States or Canada. Use the International
worksheet if you are in any other area. Obtain the information from your ISDN
line supplier and the ISDN product manufacturer.
The Setup Wizard prompts you for this information.
ØNote: Modem Aggregation
You cannot aggregate ISDN adapters and analog modems. Modem Aggregation
only works with analog modems.
The Internet Station does not support the use of ISDN adapters for Modem
Pooling.
