Welcome
Wireless-G Music Bridge
Chapter 1: Introduction
Welcome
Thank you for choosing the Wireless-G Music Bridge. The Wireless-G Music Bridge allows you to listen to digital
music in your living room as well as on your computer.
How does the Music Bridge do all of this? The Linksys Wireless-G Music Bridge lets you bring the digital music
streaming to or stored on your computer to your Home Entertainment Center without running cables through the
house.
Using a wireless connection, the Music Bridge finally frees your digital music collection from those little
computer speakers to play in full glory through your stereo or surround sound system.
The Wireless-G Music Bridge sits by your home stereo and connects to it using standard consumer electronics
cables.
Then it connects to your home network by Wireless-G wireless networking, or if you prefer, it can be
connected via standard 10/100 Ethernet cabling.
The included software creates a virtual sound system in your
PC, which sends the audio output of any application to the Music Bridge and the stereo system.
Use your favorite
media player to play your music while listening in the comfort of your living room.
Use the instructions in this Guide to help you connect the Wireless-G Music Bridge, set it up, and configure it to
bridge your music networks. These instructions should be all you need to get the most out of the Wireless-G
Music Bridge.
