-
- Apple InterNet Router does not route or gateway TCP/IP. Most of the
- available hardware solutions do (Cayman GatorBox, Shiva FastPath,
- Webster MultiGate, Compatible Systems EtherRoute).
-
- The AIR does run in the background on a Mac. Remember that if the Mac
- is shut off or crashes (and we all know how infrequently that can
- happen) your router will be down until the Mac can be brought back up and
- the AIR software restarted.
-
- I hope this helps. Questions on Cayman products can be sent to
- support@cayman.com, any others to glen@cayman.com.
