Chapter 3 - Enabling broadband Internet entertainment
If you have a broadband Internet connection (preferably 256 kpbs), you can stream Internet radio stations live from the Internet to the SL50i for free.
Broadband internet also provides the on-line upgrades for the SL50i.
The Internet entertainment offering is constantly being improved and new functions are added.
Visit www.philips.com/streamium for the latest possibilities.
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

operating system. For Microsoft

and
other operating systems, third party router/gateway software is
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.
