MAC Address Control on the Wireless Network
If you are using MAC Address Control on your wireless network, you will need to
know the MAC address of your Wireless Music Receiver. The MAC address is a
unique number that identifies your device on the network. It consists of a series of
numbers and letters in the following format: xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx
The MAC address for your Wireless Music Receiver is printed on the bottom of the
device. It can also be displayed on the LCD screen. See 'Viewing Network Status
Settings'.
You must change your wireless network settings to exclude the Wireless Music
Receiver's MAC address from filtering. Please refer to your wireless network's
documentation for details on how to do this.
Enabling Internet Connection Sharing on Your PC
If your connection to the Internet is made available via a single PC, that PC must
enable 'Internet Connection Sharing'.
To set up and use the Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) feature in Microsoft
Windows XP:
1 Log on to the host computer as Administrator or Owner.
2 On the taskbar, click 'Start', then 'Control Panel'.
3 In Control Panel, click 'Network and Internet Connections' under
'Pick a category'.
4 Click 'Network Connections' icon.
5 Right-click the connection that you use to connect to the Internet and choose
Properties from the menu. For example, if you connect to the Internet using a
modem, right-click the desired Dial Up connection.
6 Click the 'Advanced' tab.
This will give you access to the options for sharing your Internet Connection.
Next:
a) In the 'Internet Connection Sharing' section: Place a check mark to allow other
users to connect through this computer's Internet connection.
b) Remove the check mark that allows other network users to control or disable
the shared Internet connection.
7 Click OK (16). The following message appears:
'When Internet Connection Sharing is enabled, your LAN adapter will be set to use
IP address 192.168.0.1. Your computer may lose connectivity with other computers on
your network. If these other computers have static IP addresses, you should set them
to obtain their IP addresses automatically. Are you sure you want to enable Internet
Connection Sharing?'
8 Click Yes.
The connection to the Internet is shared with other computers on the local area
network (LAN). The network adapter that is connected to the LAN is configured with a
static IP address of 192.168.0.1 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
