Firewalls can interfere with or block MP115 performance. If you are running
Windows XP, Service Pack 2, the NETGEAR Wireless Digital Media Player
MP115 Resource CD sets it up to be compatible during installation. If you use
other firewalls, such as ZoneAlarm, set the following ports to be open:
— UDP Ports: 1360, 1900
— TCP Ports: 1025 – 1035, 3640, 3641, 4000, 4001, 7000 – 7010,
49200 – 49210
The Media server online help includes more information about firewalls.

Determine which type of cable your television uses:
•
Composite Video cable and Audio cable (also called RCA Video and
RCA Audio): These two cables are included, and are compatible with most
televisions in the US.
•
SCART: This cable is often used in Europe and Australia, and is not
included in the package. However, if you have this cable, the MP115 will
recognize it, and you can continue to use these instructions.
•
S-Video, or Component Video: These cables are not included in the
package, and you will need to change the MP115 settings in order to use
them. See the User Manual on the Resource CD for installation instructions.
