preparing for wireless setup

The hp digital media receiver model ew5000 supports wireless networking. If your model does not have an antenna, it does not support wireless networking.

For the best results, you should set up and test your wireless network before attempting to use the media receiver wirelessly. This will rule out any problems with your network.

scanning for wireless networks

The media receiver will scan for available networks. You should know the name of your wireless network, as the receiver may pick up other wireless networks (wlans) in your area. The network name is sometimes called the SSID.

Note: Your network must broadcast its name for the receiver to find it. Do not use silent broadcast.

wireless reception

Wireless reception will vary on distance, access point manufacturer, number of walls, and environment. If possible, try setting up the media receiver in an area

that is close to your PC or wireless access point. Once everything is working properly, you can experiment with placement and distance.

wireless infrastructure or ad hoc?

These are intimidating names for some very simple concepts.

In Infrastructure mode, a wireless access point exists on the network. The access point can be attached to a hub or router, or the router can act as a wireless access point as well. All PCs and wireless devices communicate through the access point.

If you do not have a wireless access point or router, you can use Ad Hoc mode. Ad Hoc allows communication between a PC with a wireless card and the media receiver. Communication occurs between the devices directly without the need for an access point.
