(NIC) installed in a PC as shown below. Please note that the ex-
ample shown below uses a BNC connection to a network
backbone. You may also use the Uplink port (port 10X) connection
described above but you must ensure that no signal loops are
formed.

Connecting to the Internet

The internet server must be connected to the internet (this is also
known as a Wide Area Network or 'WAN' connection) using a
COM serial port. A COM port can either be connected to the se-
rial port of a modem (or fax/modem), or to an ISDN terminal
adapter.
This internet server model has two COM ports and can therefore
have two WAN connections. Any combination of different types of
WAN connections will work. The faster the WAN connections, the
faster your internet access will be for all users.
Connect the COM port of the internet server to a modem or ISDN
terminal adapter using a standard serial cable.
