Change of N/W interface from ThinEther to UTP

Dear Managers,
     I want to change n/w connection from Thin Ethernet to
UTP(10BaseT) on system DEC 2000 Model 300 (1994 make).
Both interfaces are provided on N/W adapter card, which
is supplied with the system by DEC.
I do not have any documentation specific to this n/w adapter.

   Firmware version is 1.4
   OS version is OSF 3.0

How to make this modification?

I have gone thru all the relevant manuals like
    Technical Overview
    Customer Technical Information
    User Information
    Sys Admin Manual

I could not find a solution in any manual. It is possible
that I missed somewhere.
But, the same job I could do in just couple of minutes
on a DEC 2000 4/233 system with the help of Firmware Ref. Manual.
( firmware version : 4.3 ). One has to set an environment
variable to 'utp'.
This sort of thing does not seem to be there on the other system.

Shall I upgrade my firmware on Model 300 system also?

Thanks for any help, in advance.


Brahmaji
