How can I Connect to the Internet with my ECO2?
The ECO2 can accommodate the following for internet use:
Ethernet Cable for a wired connection. These are standard Ethernet cables you can purchase at any store where computers are sold. They plug into the connector on your computer that looks like a phone jack. If you are using your computer at home you will plug the other end of the cable into your router or hub or cable box or whatever your internet service provider has given you for internet access. If you are using your computer at work, you will plug the other end of the cable into the Ethernet jack on the wall. This also looks like a phone jack.
Optional Wi-Fi for a wireless connection. To use the internet you must have access to a local Wi-Fi network or a cable to connect to a local area network (LAN). If you have not purchased the ECO's built-in Wi-Fi option, you will need a third party Wi-Fi card to access wireless internet.
OR
A USB network adapter (Wired or wireless). Note: Wireless adapters come in two major types - 802.11b and 802.11g. You should choose one that is compatible with your existing wireless
network.
Installing a network adapter Follow the instructions included with your network adapter.
Installing/configuring an internet connection Your ECO is a computer running Windows XP Home and can be configured the same as any other computer running this operating system. Call your internet service provider for information on setting up an internet connection for your ECO.
