Instant Internet: Connect LANs (Windows for Workgroups 3.11, Windows 95, Windows NT, NetWare, Lantastic to the Internet. Instant Internet, Performance Technology.

LAN-Internet Connectivity
Secure, shared Internet access

Is it hard to set up?
Instant Internet is the easiest solution to connect Novell NetWare^®, Windows^® for Workgroups, Windows 95, Windows NT, and POWERLan^® local area networks to the Internet.

Your LAN users will begin productively using the Internet less than 15 minutes after delivery of your Instant Internet.

Email, Web browsing, and newsgroups have never been easier! Every Internet site is available through Instant Internet.

In a nutshell, Instant Internet is a shared Internet connection.

Will it work if I don't have a network?
Yes. Your PCs may be connected only to the Instant Internet. You don't need a file server, Windows NT server, or shared storage system. In all cases, the PCs communicate directly through the device to the Internet.

However, if you have a network already installed, don't worry, Instant Internet will not use one of your network addresses or licenses.

How many users can access the Internet?
All of your LAN users may be given permission to access the Internet through this device. Up to 100 applications may concurrently access the Internet through a single Instant Internet connection.

If you need more than the 100 concurrent licenses, multiple Instant Internet devices can be connected to your LAN to provide additional access and load balancing.

How does Instant Internet work?
Using a single IP address, the Instant Internet product receives winsock application data via the IPX protocol of your LAN and transmits the data to your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

Winsock data from your workstations (Netscape Navigator, Internet Explorer, Eudora, etc.) are automatically routed by Instant Internet to its internal 56 Kb/s modem, internal 128nbsp;Kb/s ISDN card, or to a digital routing device, such as an ext ernal ISDN, frame relay, T1 , or T3 connection.

Instant Internet matches the type of cabling on your LAN -- 10Base-2 "thinnet, coax"; 10Base-T (UTP); Token Ring; and combination LAN cabling.

But, I need security!
No IP addressing is needed on your local area network. Instant Internet uses IPX, not TCP/IP, to receive data from your workstations. It's impossible for an unauthorized user to gain access to your LAN--an absolute firewall has been cre ated. Your corporate information is secure.

Do you use this product yourself?
Damar Group, Ltd. installed the Instant Internet at its headquarters facility to allow both corporate employees and training class participants to share access to the Internet.

We tested the system with 12 classroom workstations concurrently accessing Websites, and we saw no degradation in performance.

"I expected to see the modem fail to keep up; however, it was rare for multiple stations to concurrently download heavy graphic files, and even when they were, the dialup connection held up under load yielding a consist ently high throughput." said DGL President, Dave Murphy.

One of Damar Group, Ltd.'s goals is to make the Internet accessible to as many people as possible.

Mr. Murphy continues, "Instant Internet is the only product we have tested that may be setup, ready to go in less than 15 minutes from the time of delivery. It promises first-time, every-time secure Internet connectivity."

Instant Internet is the only option for organizations wanting Internet connectivity for their network users.

How do I control users' access?
As a complete solution, Instant Internet lets you easily manage the Internet access of your users. Users may be granted permission to access only specific sites, and the allowed days and hours of their access may be controlled..

Is this more expensive than separate modems?
Best of all Instant Internet requires only one access account (or IP address) at your Internet Service Provider and only one dialup or digital phone line. This means it's simple to setup, and with only one dialup connection you will save money.

Instant Internet Monitor

Can I tell when users are online?
