Apple TV helps you select and configure your wireless network connection, and, if you
want to watch or listen to the content in your iTunes library, connect to iTunes on your
computer.
Network Configuration
Have your network password (if you use one) and your Apple Remote handy to
configure your Apple TV. Make sure there are no obstructions between the remote and
Apple TV. See “Ready, set, watch.” on page 21 for information about using your remote.
If you:
Â
Use a wired Ethernet network to connect, Apple TV automatically detects your
network.
Â
Use a wireless network to connect, Apple TV helps you select and configure your
network connection.
Connecting to Your Wireless Network
Apple TV will help you connect to your wireless network. If you use a password to
access your network, have it ready. Use the Apple Remote to:
Â
Select your network from the list, or enter your network name if the network is
hidden
Â
Enter your password (if you have one)
Â
Enter your IP address, subnet mask, router, and DNS address (if you’re manually
configuring your network)
If you don’t connect using DHCP, you may have to enter your IP address, subnet mask,
router, and DNS addresses.
