The two companies will further develop their relationship, formally begun in September of 2000, to market Nexland’s Internet Gateways to business DSL customers.

Nexland’s new line of Professional Series Internet Gateways will provide

Bell’s business DSL customers the ability to share one Internet connection

with multiple computers using fast, reliable and user-friendly security

features, said Greg Levine, president of Nexland. As Bell’s business

customers grow and expand their network requirements, Nexland is also able to

offer full compatibility with (Virtual Private Network) VPN equipment and

software.

Since partnering with Nexland last year, almost 15% of our Business

Internet High Speed customers have chosen Nexland’s Internet Gateways, said

Moira Coull, Director, Product Management, Bell Business ISP. We look

forward to working further with Nexland and expanding our marketing and

promotions efforts to offer more of their products to our Business Internet

High Speed customers.

The Nexland ISB Pro400 and ISB Pro800 are Internet sharing routers that

allow up to 253 computers to share a single DSL connection. They offer full

multi-session IPsec (VPN encryption) pass-through and provide a firewall to

protect business systems.
