Network Requirements
The SMCWAA-G can communicate with your home network using TCP-IP over either an IEEE802.11b/g wireless link or a
hard-wired Ethernet link. The network must provide:
• Internet access
(used to listen to Internet radio stations and online music tracks) and
• Communication between the SMCWAA-G and at least one PC, running a UPnP server application, such as Musicmatch
(used to play music from the PC’s hard disk).
If one PC provides both Musicmatch and Internet connectivity, it will be necessary to enable Internet Connection Sharing (see
Windows Help for instructions) or to install a local Proxy Server on the PC.
Two typical network configurations are shown below:
Notes:
1. In the wireless mode, the SMCWAA-G must communicate with an Access Point (AP) or wireless router in Infrastructure
Mode.
Please consult your AP/Router documentation for information on system setup.
2. The AP may also integrate Network Router and/or DSL/Cable Modem functions.
