3.0 Getting to Know Your HomePod 

3.1 Hooking up your HomePod 

HomePod streams digital music files stores in your computer, over the 

local network (either by wired Ethernet or over wireless Wi-Fi network). 

Most of the time, HomePod will be used in a wireless setting. A typical 

wireless network setup is to have your computer connected to a 

wireless router (or an access point) to form a wireless network. And 

HomePod also connects to this wireless network.
