Installing the Rovio Setup software

Configuring your Rovio the first time

Before you use Rovio for the first time, you will need to configure your Rovio.

To install the Rovio Setup software, your computer set-up must have the following:

•Windows XP™ or Window Vista™

•USB connectivity

•Wireless access point (WAP) device (for example, your wireless router)

•A CD/DVD drive

•A Wi-Fi card (for Ad hoc setup)

NOTE: If you are a Mac user, refer to the subsection Mac users in the section Installing the Rovio Setup software to learn how to configure Rovio without the Rovio Setup CD.

IMPORTANT: Rovio does not support WPA passwords on wireless access points; it only supports WEP passwords. For instance, if your wireless router uses a WPA password, you will need to change it to a WEP password. Refer to your router’s user manual.

Please go to www.wowweesupport.com to check if a firmware update supporting WPA has become available.
