IDB-1394 Customer Convenience Port (CCP) is the automotive version of the 1394 standard.

FireWire can be used for ad-hoc (terminals only, no routers) computer networks. Specifically, RFC 2734 specifies how to run IPv4 over the FireWire interface, and RFC 3146 specifies how to run IPv6.

Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD, Windows ME, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 all include support for networking over FireWire. A network can be set up between two computers using a single standard FireWire cable, or by multiple computers through use of a hub. This is similar to Ethernet networks with the major differences being transfer speed, wire length, and the fact that standard FireWire cables can be used for point-to-point communication.

On December 4, 2004, Microsoft announced that it would discontinue support for IP networking over the FireWire interface in all future versions of Microsoft Windows. Subsequently, support for this féature was removed from both Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008.

The PlayStation 2 console had an i.LINK-branded 1394 connector. This was used for networking until the reléase of an Ethernet adapter late in the console's lifespan, but was poorly supported by software.
