Setting Up the MP101

Welcome

The NETGEAR MP101 Digital Music Player brings the media capabilities of your personal

computer to the comfortable confines of your living room. Now, all the music stored in your

computer as well as streaming Internet radio content can be accessed right from your audio player.

You can opt for the convenience of current wireless networking standards or the security and

reliability of good old-fashioned wires. NETGEAR Audio’s friendly user interface and intuitive

navigation puts all of your digital content at your fingertips.

NETGEAR Audio is a client-server system. Media stored in the server is played from the client.

The player has no permanent storage thus it is called the “client” because its purpose is to browse

and playback content. The PC has permanent storage and thus it is called the “server.” Music files

are “served” to the player from the PC. The communication between these devices is

accomplished across a network, which can either be wired (using the 802.3 Ethernet standard) or

wireless (using the 802.11b standard).
