Establishing an Internet
Connection
This chapter describes the configuration options for connecting your Magnia SG20 to the
Internet.
Connecting the Magnia SG20 to the Internet
Shared Internet access
The Magnia SG20 supports phone-based access to the Internet through its modem port,
or broadband access through its public Ethernet port. When the Magnia SG20 is
connected to the Internet, all client computers connected to it can also access the
Internet. This shared Internet access allows all the client computers on your local
network to use a single Internet access line. While you may have several client
computers accessing the Internet, it appears to your ISP as if there is only one computer
connected. The Magnia SG20 takes care of routing Internet traffic to the correct client
computer.
