Wireless Digital Media Player MP115

Start Here

Follow these quick steps to install your MP115.

1.VERIFY THAT BASIC REQUIREMENTS ARE MET

Make sure that you have the following:

A wireless (802.11b or 802.11g) or Ethernet network

One or more computers running Windows 98SE, 2000, ME or XP

Broadband Internet service (recommended)

Have your Network Name (SSID) and security settings handy.

Firewalls can interfere with or block MP115 performance. If you are running Windows XP, Service Pack 2, the NETGEAR Wireless Digital Media Player MP115 Resource CD sets it up to be compatible during installation. If you use other firewalls, such as ZoneAlarm, set the following ports to be open:

UDP Ports: 1360, 1900

TCP Ports: 1025 – 1035, 3640, 3641, 4000, 4001, 7000 – 7010, 49200 – 49210

The Media server online help includes more information about firewalls.

Note: Depending on your location, complimentary 30-day trials for Internet radio stations may be available for vTuner, Radio@AOL, and Rhapsody. The Resource CD automatically installs vTuner and Radio@AOL. To use the trial for Rhapsody, you must select Install Rhapsody from the menu, and complete that installation.

e.Restart your computer and the NETGEAR Media server software automatically runs.

f.Use the Media server software to scan your hard drive to locate your video, picture, and music files.

Note: You can use the Options tab on the Media server to specify which types of files you want to include, as described in the Media server online help.

3.INSTALL THE MP115 PLAYER

a.Determine which type of cable your television uses:

Composite Video cable and Audio cable (also called RCA Video and RCA Audio): These two cables are included, and are compatible with most televisions in the US.

SCART: This cable is often used in Europe and Australia, and is not included in the package. However, if you have this cable, the MP115 will recognize it, and you can continue to use these instructions.

S-Video, or Component Video: These cables are not included in the package, and you will need to change the MP115 settings in order to use them. See the User Manual on the Resource CD for installation instructions.

b.Connect the MP115 to your television with the correct cables.

Composite Video and Audio Cables:

Connect the Composite Video cable, which has only one jack, to the port labelled Composite Video on the rear panel of the MP115.

Connect the red and white jacks on the Audio cable into the corresponding ports labelled Audio on the rear panel of the MP115.

Connect the Composite Video cable and the Audio cable to the corre- sponding ports on your television.

SCART (cable not included):

Connect one end of your cable to the port labelled SCART on the rear panel of the MP115. Then connect the other end to your television set.

c.If you have a wired LAN network (not wireless), use an Ethernet cable such as the one provided in the package to connect the MP115 to your router.
