[gui-talk] wireless network question

[Rob Tabor]

Actually, the 1394 is a firewire port. The internet cable port is officially
called an RJ45 ethernet connecgtor port,
Which gives you another way to access the web if you are unable to resolve
your wireless LAN, but I don't know why that wouldn't be resolvable.
Best regards,

The 1394 connection is probably a network card with an ethernet connection.
As Steve says you should have one connection to the Internet, not two,
either wireless to your router, or hard wired ethernet to your router.  The
ethernet is faster, and more secure, but not portable -- so the choice is
yours.
