This guide walks you through connecting your media player to a Wi-Fi network. Before accessing the operating system's network settings, please complete the preliminary steps below.

Preliminary Steps

Complete both of these steps before proceeding to the Wi-Fi setup instructions for your operating system.

•  Touchscreen directory: Connect a USB keyboard only.

•  Non-touchscreen directory: Connect both a USB keyboard and a USB mouse.

Once your keyboard (and mouse, if applicable) is connected, press ALT + F4 on the keyboard to close the directory application and return to the desktop.

Note: The media player inside the enclosure will typically have 2 open-ended USB extension cables available. These enable you to connect your USB keyboard and mouse to the media player without having to connect to the USB ports on the media player directly, as the media player is often mounted behind the display.
