Tags: Firewire, 1394

A 1394 Net Adaptor Connection is basically Win2k/XP's way of telling you that you have a Firewire interface installed in your system.

IEEE 1394 is more commonly known as Firewire and is mostly used to connect to peripherals such as digital cameras, camcorders and some external hard drives. It can also be used to network two Firewire-equipped systems together, achieving 12.5 to 50MBps transfer speeds. Firewire networking use is limited because of its 15ft cable length limitation.

I didn't think I could do anything with my 1394 net adaptor, but when I bridged the connection with my lan connection, data transfer is so much faster now.

How did you bridge the two please?

1.The device manager has a red X on the 1934 net adapter.

2.A bluetooth epox earset is not able to connect.

3.Any connections?

4.Any driver suggestions?

Right-click on it and select Enable..That should do it.

Why do I have the 1394 Net Adaptor. Its not something I have ever intentionally loaded and seems to REALLY slow my internet interaction? What will be the result if I uninstall it?

Chris,
You don't say how to bridge the firewire and lan connections. Just enabling them on my inspiron 700m does not connect them. My 1394 net adapter is enabled but I cannot get an internet visual from it even though it says that I am connected. My lan connection is enabled and I can access the internet from it but I do not get the higher speed of the 1394 net adaptor. Has anyone been successful at effecting a bridge as Chris infers?

ignore the bridging thing - 1394 is just for plugging in cameras etc as stated & for data transfer between plugin & computer

I was having problems with my LAN connection (Logitech squeezebox set up - data stream kept dropping out/connection failing - on and off for YEARS).

Tried "bridging" 1394 and LAN - FIXED!!

Presumably the 1394 and LAN cards were somehow interfering with each other (fighting over resources and confusing the OS?) and now they are in harmony with each other.

Next I'll try disabling the 1394 completely but for now I'm just going to enjoy some music :-)

i have a windows xp desktop and i had a virus on it that wouldnt let me access it. so i used the windows xp professional installation disc to fully recover it and make a clean slate. It suddenly got rid of my local area connection (i have a yellow ethernet cable plugged into the wall) and all it says is i have a 1394 connection. im thinking that windows xp professional installation disc just decides to install it on (1394 network adapter). im not sure how to get rid of it, i could buy a wireless adapter but id rather just connect with an ethernet cord if i can. any suggestions?

To bridge the 1394 connection and the local area connection.
(1) Disable both.
(2) Select both ( drag or use control click just highlight both connections )
(3) right click within the high lighted area and choose bridge connections
that should bridge them.
