Connecting to the Internet
The Media Center requires an Internet connection to access the Internet. Make sure you have access to a dial-up or
broadband Internet connection before starting Media Center software setup. Contact your Internet service provider for
more information about setting up your Internet connection.
The Media Center offers three possible ways for connecting to the Internet:
1 via the ethernet cable to a DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) modem (if you have a wired network);
2 via the telephone cable to connect to the telephone line (if you have a dial-up modem);
3 wireless connection to a DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) modem (if you have a wireless network).
If you connect (either wired or wireless) the Media Center to an existing home network with centrally shared broadband
Internet access for all connected computers, you can connect the Media Center directly to your central network device
(the router/gateway). In this way, the Media Center can access the Internet just like your other computers and you do not
need to install ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) to make Internet access available to your Media Center.
