do you have both a modem and a ethernet/wireless card?

1080jibber · 09-19-2003, 07:57 PM

the only computer thing called a 1394 I've ever encountered is a "fire-wire" card, which allows you to attach an external fire-wire disk.

Yes they are right, it's the fire-wire port that's either included as an option on your mobo, or your SB Audigy card. I disable it, because I have no fire-wire devices. It's not used to connect to the internet in any way, even though it's in your Connection Manger right next to LAN.
