3.1 How does your computer connect to the Internet?
Wireless base stations share their broadband Internet access
automatically within the network.
>The SL50i will be able to access the Internet just like your
other wireless or wired network computer(s).
Continue with chapter 3.2.
If you have a PC with a broadband Internet connection,
you will have to make that Internet connection available to the
wireless network that connects to the SL50i.
To do this, install router/gateway software on the PC for
bridging the broadband Internet connection to the wireless or
wired network.
As an example we have included a chapter on page 38-42 of
the extended User Manual on the Philips Media Manager CD
on how to enable Internet Connection Sharing from your

readily available on the market.
For more information on sharing an Internet connection, read
the documentation that came with the software or with your
operating system.
> After bridging the internet connection to your wireless
(or wired) network, you will be able to use the SL50i to
access the Internet just like your computer.
