sure to replace the end caps on the unit before plugging in the AC power supply into the wall, in order to avoid abnormal unit operation due to static discharge.

V. Using Your Remote Control

First, insert two AAA batteries (included) into your remote control.

Then, point it in the direction of your SoundBridge unit (make sure the IR receiver window is not blocked by a nearby object).

VI. Establishing a Network Connection

Wired Ethernet Network: After you have connected SoundBridge to your computer via a switch/hub/router (or directly to your computer via crossover cable) and powered up the unit, SoundBridge will auto-configure its network settings (using DHCP or AutoIP). There is nothing you need to do. If for some reason you have trouble connecting to your network, select the “SYSTEM CONFIGURATION” option, then select “SHOW WIRED ETHERNET STATUS.”

Wireless Network: If you have a Wi-Fi network in your home, with no security keys set, then SoundBridge will also auto-connect to your wireless network. If SoundBridge detects more than one Wi-Fi network (as some advanced users have in their home, or if your neighbor’s signal is leaking over), then you will be asked to select the SSID (network ID) to connect to.
