If the name is already taken, you will be prompted to
enter a different name.
NOTE:
You can change the Remote Device
Name at any time; however, the Media Hub only
supports a single Remote Device Name. If you
save a new Remote Device Name, then you give
up the old one. After you change the Remote
Device Name, the Media Hub will take up to five
minutes to implement the new Remote Device
Name. After the Media Hub automatically
reboots, the Remote Access service will be
available.
Click Submit to save your changes, or click Cancel to
cancel your changes.
The Remote Access service will be available in
approximately two to five minutes. During this time, the
Media Hub restarts itself, so it will not be available for
streaming music or other functions until after the restart.

Video Playback over Remote Access
Follow these guidelines:
•
Make sure the computer you are using has the proper
plug-ins installed. Playing video files over remote
access requires the same plug-ins you have installed
on your home computer.
•
Video playback should be limited to smaller video files,
as larger video files may take a long time to load and
play.
NOTE:
Video playback support over remote
access depends on the broadband speeds
of both your home connection and remote
connection.
Windows File Sharing
The Media Hub uses the Windows File Sharing feature to
share files with other computers, either locally on your
network or remotely through the File Browser. The status
of this feature is displayed. It is enabled by default and
should remain enabled at all times.
The shared folders are listed by name.
