Chapter 1: Overview

Congratulations on purchasing the ViewSonic WMG80 / WMG120 Wireless Media Gateway print server and hard drive! The ViewSonic WMG80 / WMG120 Gateway gives you the freedom to enjoy all your digital media entertainment - TV, movies, music, gaming, Internet access, digital pictures, and more - from any location in your home. The Gateway easily connects to your networked media adapters and then functions as your in-home networked media storage device. It features a hard drive to store digital media entertainment. Two USB ports and the internal print server provide support for USB printers and additional external storage devices. Set up is quick and easy with the included set up instructions.

Important: If you are using the WMA to see pictures, the pictures have to be JPEG format that are stored on the WMG hard drive. The WMA can support other formats (JPEG, PNG, GIF) when stored on your PC hard drive. For more information, see the chapter on File Management to transfer content from your PC to the Gateway hard drive.
