Note: The Raven X does not provide advanced routing required by
one-to-many (several devices connected to one port). If you need to
have more than one device connected to the Internet through your
Raven X, you will need to have a router connected to the modem. The
modem would provide the one-to-one connection to the router with the
router configured to provide a broader NAT service to the other
devices connected to it.
