CHOOSING YOUR NETWORK CONNECTION
FireBall supports two networking methods, Ethernet and Dialup Modem. Your FireBall must be
connected to the Internet in order to lookup disc information, download software updates, and
access Internet Radio.

from most computer retail stores or contact your Escient dealer for more details.
If you have a broadband Internet connection such as a cable modem, DSL, or ISDN line, select
Ethernet and connect FireBall to your Ethernet network. You may need additional networking
hardware(like an Ethernet hub) to join your FireBall to your Ethernet network. See your Escient
dealer for more information about home networking.
If you have a dialup ISP (Internet Service Provider (such as AOL, Compuserve, Earthlink, MSN
etc…) select the Dialup Modem button.

1. Press the SETUP key on the remote to display the Setup menu.
