SomethingCool.com’s “IcePak” Firewall Benefits

IcePak Case BadgeBenefits of having an Icepack Firewall & Internet Sharing unit:

· Don’t get burned by hackers compromising your system! Stay Cool with SomethingCool.com’s “IcePak!”

· Share a single Internet connection with any network capable computer on the same network in your location! Yes, this means there is no “per client” licensing fee! You are only limited by the amount of bandwidth available at your location.

· Web Site Cache that caches sites you have been to and serves the same contents to the rest of your network at a blistering speed!

· Domain Name System cache for redundancy in case your ISP’s DNS server goes down

· Shield between your private network and the public Internet. Acts as the “middleman” so your individual computers don’t actually go out in the blazing Internet! Only ONE computer (the “IcePak”) is directly connected to the Internet.

· Automatic host computer configuration available. The DHCP server automatically configures a new host computer on the network to work with the “IcePak”

· The ability to restrict access to certain areas of the Web, such as pornography, etc.
