Using the iCEBOX Modes

Configuring Connection Settings

The iCEBOX can connect to the Internet in three different ways:

•Wired (Ethernet) Broadband

•Wireless (802.11b) Broadband

•Dial-Up

Configuring a Wired Broadband Connection

If you’ve installed the included PCMCIA Network card for a wired (ether- net) Broadband connection, further configuration may not be needed. The iCEBOX is set by default to support DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), which is suitable for most households. If your Internet Service Provider (ISP) support DHCP, the iCEBOX should connect automatically when you go to Internet Mode.

However, if you use a Static IP address further information is required to connect. Your ISP will need to provide you with a static IP address, subnet mask, gateway router and DNS servers.

To configure a Broadband connection

1.Press Internet to switch to Internet Mode, then press Options.

2.From the Internet Options menu, select Connection Settings.

3.Select the Broadband Settings button.

4.Select the Ethernet Type.

•Select the Use DHCP (Auto) if your ISP supports dynamic host con- figuration protocol (DHCP).

•Clear the Use DHCP (Auto) checkbox if your ISP does not support DHCP.

5.If needed, enter static IP address, subnet mask, gateway router and DNS servers.

6.Choose OK.

Configuring a Wireless Connection

If you are using a wireless network card, you’ll need to configure the con- nection settings the first time you go to Internet Mode. This may include a WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) key and other security settings. This may also include additional IP information if you use a Static IP address.

To configure a Wireless connection:

1.In Internet Mode, press Options.

2.From the Internet Options menu, select Connection Settings.

3.Select the Wireless Settings button.

4.Select your home network.
