show it topped out at just over 1.5 Mbps throughput. And it locked
up repeatedly at around 1.2 Mbps from 4 clients.
By comparison, the ancient PowerMac 7100/66, running Mac OS 8.6 and
IPNetRouter sustained about 6 Mbps (using the built-in 10 Mbps port

for the last week I have been trying to get IPNetRouter setup to allow us to share a
cable internet connection. The gateway computer is a PPC 6500/300 running 9.1. I have
a farallon comm II slot card and a znyx PCI slot card as the two ethernet connections

Hi Kim,
I'm using my old Centris 650 for exactly this purpose and it works great.
No drop in performance and since the ethernet port on the 650 is 10 Mbps the
limiting factor will still be your cable modem (DSL in my case).
Sustainable Softworks even has a version of IPNetRouter just fo
I agree with Mike. I currently use a Linksys router but for a long
time ran IPNetRouter on IIfx's, 950's, IIci's, etc.. Most any old mac
will do as long as you have two ethernet cards or one card and built
in ethernet as in the Quadra's so the machine can act as a Firewall.

One AWESOME advantage of IPNetRouter is you can share your internet connection
with MacIP using an ethernet to localtalk adaptor from farallon or asante, or
run the Laserwriter Ethernet Bridge software on another dedicated machine. The

Only marginally. If speed is of the essence in its use and you are
operating a server open to the public, you'll take a small
performance hit. Otherwise, feel free to use your gateway machine for
a web server where security isn't terribly important. e.g. a vanity
site.
Just remember that the
Thanks for the advice. I do have both PCI slots open so will probably do as you
suggest. Could you tell me whether using the gateway computer for other things, like
running a printer or surfing the internet, interferes with its functioning as the
gateway, or vice-versa?

IPNetRouter is a wonderful product! If my current broadband provider
weren't such poops about their own hardware, I'd still be using it.
It offers what I consider to be a much more flexible NAT set-up than
those provided by hardware routers.

I am considering purchasing IPNetRouter from Sustainable Software and using it on our
