There are many companies who provide ethernet networking products and they are available at any computer or electronics retailer.

Again, a “Router” is used to connect multiple Powerline Devices to share a single broadband Internet connection. Ethernet cables are used to connect the network devices to the Powerline adapters.
HOME NETWORKING PRIMER WD005-1-2 12/22/2003 able to access the shared broadband Internet connection because the router/access point provides the “bridge” between the wireless and wired networks. Sample 802.11 Wireless Network HomePNA 2.0 (Phone Line): 10Mbps HPNA, PhoneLine or HomePNA networking works over the existing copper telephone wires in your home without interfering with voice or DSL communications. HomePNA 3.0 will push the speed up to 100Mbps when it comes out.
HOME NETWORKING PRIMER WD005-1-2 12/22/2003 Alternative Networking Technologies Alternative networking technologies are often used to supplement a primary network. They are not as popular as the aforementioned networks, but are still available. The can be 'bridged' to other networks to create a single integrated network. You can buy different network adapters to ‘bridge’ or connect one type of network to another.
HOME NETWORKING PRIMER WD005-1-2 12/22/2003 Ethernet Networking Ethernet is the most popular and considered the networking topology standard for most computer connections. There have been many kinds of Ethernet, but the most popular is 10/100Mbps running over copper twisted pair wires. 100Mbps Ethernet is also called 100baseT and Fast Ethernet. All current Escient products support built-in Ethernet networking.
HOME NETWORKING PRIMER WD005-1-2 12/22/2003 be placed on each end making the maximum distance something like 40Km. Another use for fiber is electrical insulation. Some people like to run cables underground between homes. If you run CAT5 cable, the homes have different 'ground potentials' and you will burn out network card during any electrical storm. The solution is fiber! Run fiber between the homes or run a pair of fiber converters on one end of the cable with a short fiber run.
HOME NETWORKING PRIMER WD005-1-2 12/22/2003 Wireless Networking with 802.11b In 2000, 802.11b became the standard wireless networking technology for both business and home. The WiFI organization was created to ensure interoperability between 802.11b products. With a realistic throughput of 2.5-4Mbps, it is fast enough for most network applications and tolerable for file transfers.
HOME NETWORKING PRIMER WD005-1-2 12/22/2003 Form Factors 802.11b adapters come in two major form factors. PC Cards for laptops and USB for desktops. In addition, there are PCI adapters that let you plug a PC Card into a PCI Slot. Speed A full strength 802.11b signal will get you about 3.5-4.5 Mbps without WEP enabled. With WEP enabled, expect 2.5-3.5 Mbps. As you put walls and distance between your wireless adapter and your access point, your speed will drop.
HOME NETWORKING PRIMER WD005-1-2 12/22/2003 Powerline Networking Powerline networking has existed in a few forms in the past, the latest specification is called HomePlug and runs at 14Mbps. HomePlug uses your existing home electrical wiring to transfer data. HomePlug does not interfere with your existing electrical equipment or home automation devices like X-10, CEBus, and LONworks.

PC Integration WD044-1-1 2/24/2005 Connecting to Your FireBall FireBall uses a type of file server commonly called “Windows Networking” or “CIFS/SMB”. CIFS/SMB networking is found in most Microsoft operating systems and allows PCs to connect and share files over a network. Setting up the FireBall Server Before you can connect to your FireBall you must configure FireBall’s server settings. Follow these steps to configure your FireBall server: 1.
PC Integration WD044-1-1 2/24/2005 Mount Your FireBall on your PC To mount your FireBall’s CONTENT volume which contains all of your music files, right click on “My Computer” and select “Map Network Drive” from your PC. Choose an available drive letter, then type in the name of your FireBall. Example: suppose you named your FireBall “MyFireBall” in the Server Settings screen, you would then enter \\MyFireBall\Content in the Folder name, and click Finish.
PC Integration WD044-1-1 2/24/2005 Backing Up Your FireBall Once you have successfully mounted your FireBall’s Content volume on your PC, you now have access to the music content contain on the FireBall’s internal hard drive. Having this access affords you the opportunity to backup your FireBall’s music collection. There are many ways to backup the music files including copying files to another drive mounted on your PC or using third party backup software to perform automated backups each night.
PC Integration WD044-1-1 2/24/2005 3. While all the items on the Content volume are highlighted, select COPY from the Edit Menu. 4. Go to your Backup drive and choose PASTE from the Edit Menu. 5. All of the items in the current selection will now be copied to the backup drive. Depending on the size of your music collection, this may take a while to complete. The FireBall will transfer about 5GB of data per hour (120GB a day).
PC Integration WD044-1-1 2/24/2005 Automated Backups If you are going to add new music or edit the contents of your FireBall frequently, it is recommended to setup an automated backup system. This type of backup requires the FireBall Backup Kit (available from your Escient dealer) and a computer that can access your FireBall over the network. Each night the contents of your FireBall that have been added, deleted, or edited will be copied to the backup folder on your computer.

PC Integration WD044-1-1 2/24/2005 16. Close all windows and Save if asked to do so. To verify that the Schedule is set, select Manage Scripts from the Retrospect sidebar. You should see one script listed called “Daily FireBall Backup (Duplicate)”. You backup is now scheduled to run. IMPORTANT!!! Remember that your PC must be on and your CONTENT directory must be mapped on your PC in order for Retrospect to run automatically. Retrospect will launch automatically, you do not have to keep it running.
PC Integration WD044-1-1 2/24/2005 Integrating with iTunes and iPod FireBall supports iTunes and iPod integration through the FireBall Network File Sharing feature described above. Once your PC is connected to your FireBall over the network, you can access FireBall’s music and use it from iTunes and sync it with your iPod. Note: Other PC music player applications and portable MP3 players are also supported, however the following instructions are specific to Apple iTunes and the iPod.
PC Integration WD044-1-1 2/24/2005 Follow these steps to import your FireBall music content into iTunes: 1. After mounting your FireBall’s CONTENT volume (see above), open iTunes on your PC. 2.

PC Integration WD044-1-1 2/24/2005 7. When all your MP3 files have been imported, the iTunes browser window will display the music content from your FireBall, including cover art! You can now access your FireBall music from iTunes just as if it were located on your PC. Creating iTunes Playlists Now that your FireBall music has been added to the iTunes Library, you can create iTunes Playlists.
PC Integration WD044-1-1 2/24/2005 Burn CDs from iTunes Again, since your FireBall music has been added to the iTunes Library, you can burn CDs directly from iTunes Playlists on your PC. Playlists can contain any combination of music available in the iTunes browser, no matter where it actually resides.
PC Integration WD044-1-1 2/24/2005 ID3 Tags and the PC What is an ID3 Tag? When MP3s became popular in late 1996, people started wondering if there would be a solution for the lack of information in audio tracks stored in MP3 format. Basically the problem was that even most advanced rippers who distributed audio tracks in MP3 format, included the information about album, track name, etc inside the filename.
PC Integration WD044-1-1 2/24/2005 FireBall’s ID3 tag Requirements FireBall supports version1.0, 1.1, 2.2, and 2.3 ID3 tags. Before you can properly import music files into FireBall, you should first convert all of your MP3 and FLAC files to use ID3 version 2.2 or 2.3 tags. There are several programs available to do this including iTunes, however since iTunes does not support FLAC files you cannot use it for editing ID3 tags embedded into FLAC files.
