It's an empty shell, without an OS it cannot be configured for the network.
With a disk and an OS, it could be used for surfing the web however, I'm not
sure what that would accomplish. If there is no firewall and no router,
using this client as the front end for surfing would still leave your entire
network naked and with a firewall and router, you'd really have no need for
such a front end.
