Getting Connected
This Chapter shows you how to connect the DVD
Player to your network, TV, and other home the-
ater components.
For basic connections, see pages 13-16.
For advanced connections, see pages 17-19.

The Big Picture
The D2740 streams digital content, including music, movies, and pictures from your PC
to your television over a wired or wireless network. The network can be:
Any standard Microsoft“ Windows“-based home network (see page 14), or
A direct connection between your PC and the back of the DVD Player with an Eth-
ernet crossover cable (not supplied).
2 - Getting Connected
14 DVD Player Users Guide
Compatible Networks
If you do not already have a network installed, you will need to purchase the network
components of your choice and follow the installation instructions provided by
the manufacturer. The DVD Player easily connects to all three major types of home
networks, including:
Wired Ethernet Network
Networked devices commu-
nicate with each other using
Ethernet cables (following the
802.3 standard).
Wireless Access Point Network
(Infrastructure mode)
Networked devices
communicate with each
other over the air (fol
-
lowing the 802.11b/g
standard).
This type of network
requires a wireless access point to send data to your networked DVD Player.
The wireless adapter cards in a peer-to-peer network must be set to “Infrastructure
mode.
Wireless Peer-to-Peer Network
(Ad Hoc mode)
Devices communicate with
each other over the air (follow
-
ing the 802.11b/g standard).
Peer-to-Peer networks consist of two or more wireless computers that communi-
cate without a wireless access point.
The wireless adapter cards in a peer-to-peer network must be set to Ad Hoc” mode.
If You are Using a Firewall
If you are using a firewall, it is best if all your devices are behind the firewall. If this
is not possible, the next best alternative is to open only the ports required for the
Streaming Media software to work. This will reduce some of the protection afford
-
ed by the firewall, but is necessary for streaming media devices to work.
For specific information on configuring your firewall, refer to the Help file included
with the Media Server software. The Help file includes a special Troubleshooting
section covering specific settings for BlackICE, Norton Personal Firewall, Windows
XP firewall, and ZoneAlarm Pro. Also refer to the user’s guide that came with your
firewall software.
