You may be able to get internet packages to your 2000 by first
installing them onto the 120 (although the package won't run on the
120, it may not know that until it's already been downloaded to it),
selecting them in extras, and beaming them to the 2000.
That is if the OS, (not sure if you'd be running 1.x or 2.0 on the 110
or 120) supports beaming of packages... Back when I used my 100, I
never had anyone else to beam stuff to, so I don't really know if it
could.
My thinking is that once you get the internet packages / nic card
drivers etc. to the 2000 via the 120, you can then connect to NCU via
ethernet.
Just a thought...

This may not work for you if you just have a 110 and 120 (but it might).
