enables you to use the telephone wiring in your home for peer-to-peer networking.
To use the Home PNA Network adapter, you must install the Intel AnyPoint

software from the Software Selections CD. Each computer on the home PNA
network must have a PNA network adapter and the associated software installed.
For information about using the PNA network adapter or the AnyPoint software,
