What is NAT?

NAT stands for

Network Address Translator

. It is proposed and described in

RFC-1631 and is used for solving the IP Address depletion problem. Basically, each

NAT box has a table consisting of pairs of local IP Addresses and globally unique

addresses, by which the box can “translate” the local IP Addresses to global address

and vice versa. Simply put, it is a method of connecting multiple computers to the

Internet (or any other IP network) using one IP Address.

D-Link´s broadband routers (ie: DI-604) support NAT. With proper configuration,

multiple users can access the Internet using a single account via the NAT device.
