How the remote terminal
works
Figure 1 shows how the remote terminal fits into the Hughes
system architecture. The remote terminal is independent of the
operating systems of the computers connected to it, meaning a
computer using a Windows or Macintosh operating system can
browse the Internet when connected to the terminal. The terminal
is a self-hosted unit, meaning the software required to operate the
terminal resides in the terminal; there is no need to install
software on the computer(s) connected to the terminal.
