Chapter 1: Introduction
Welcome
Thank you for choosing the Wireless-B Media Link for Music. This Media Link lets you send the digital music
stored on your computer to your stereo, without running cables through the house. You can also listen to music
streaming from your favorite Internet radio station. And with the powered speakers included with the Wireless-B
Music System, you can hear your digital music collection wherever you don’t have a stereo, such as the patio or
kitchen.
How does the Media Link for Music do all of this? The Wireless-B Media Link for Music sits by your home stereo
and connects to it using standard audio cables. Then it connects to your home network by Wireless-B (802.11b)
networking, or if you prefer, it can be connected via standard 10/100 Ethernet cabling. Using the included remote
control and the user-friendly menus on the Media Link’s LCD screen, you can browse through the digital music
tracks by album, artist, genre, or playlist. Choose the music you want, and let the Wireless-B Media Link for Music
play it through your stereo system.
