VI. Establishing a Network Connection
Wired Ethernet Network: Afte r you have connected SoundBridge to your computer via a
switch/hub/router (or directly to your computer via cross over cable) and powered up the unit,
SoundBridge will auto-configure its network set tings (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 ETHERNE T STATUS.”
Wireless Network: If you have a Wi-Fi net work in your home, with no security keys set, then
SoundBridge will also auto-connect to your wireless net work. If SoundBridge detects m ore
than one Wi-Fi network (as some advanced users have in their ho me, or if your neighbor’s
signal is leaking over), then you will be asked to select the SSID (net work ID) to connect to.
If you have a security key, you will need to enter your WEP key manually into SoundBridge. This
is the same key you have entered into your Access Point and your computer. Your screen will
look something like this:
No music librar ies found (why?)
