SUMMARY

You would like to connect MSN Companion to the Internet through a broadband connection.

MORE INFORMATION

You must first purchase a "Universal Serial Bus (USB) to Ethernet adaptor" that is compatible with the MSN Companion. (For a list of compatible devices see KB Article Q.)

The MSN Companion can be added to a network several ways:
  • As a stand alone device to a high-speed modem.
  • As part of a Home Network using Home PNA or Ethernet Network.
To incorporate MSN Companion into a network, simply add the approved USB to Ethernet adaptor to the device.
Note: You must have already completed Setup via Dial Up, and upgraded to Version 2.0.
MSN Companion will auto-detect the presence of the network and should begin functioning accordingly.
