29 MEGATOUCH EVO WALLETTE ION OWNER’S MANUAL PM0480-13
Wireless Setup
Each Ion game comes equipped with a wireless USB adapter. Along with a wireless router,
the wireless adapter can be used to connect to the Internet and Mega-Link with your AMI-
powered jukebox and/or other games. The Linksys 802.11B router is recommended for use
with Ion software. In addition to wireless capability for up to 8 Megatouch games, this router
features 4 Ethernet ports for wired connections. The software allows you to configure
your own network, should you choose to do so. Follow the steps below to set up your own
network.

Choosing a
“locked” device will prompt a key (pass-
word) request. If the selection is your
own network, use your network pass-
word to gain access. If not, this indi-
cates an outside wireless network that
has been encrypted and is not acces-
sible.
Unsecured connection:
You will be
prompted to enter interface information.
Accept the default values, or consult a
network advisor to manually configure
these settings.
Ad-Hoc Network
: This is only for link-
ing games, not for connecting to the
server for MegaNet or jukebox linking.
NOTE: If you have chosen Ad-Hoc Net-
work, you will be prompted to enter the
SSID (network name). Create a name
for your network and enter your net-
work and enter that same SSID name
for all games that you want to link. You
will also be required to manually con-
figure these settings, consult a network
advisor.
Custom Configuration
: Touching
this button will prompt the user to enter
the SSID (network name) for manual
setup of the wireless connection.

does not require Manual Configura-
tion. Only users who have changed the

should change the SSID. Consult the
instructions supplied with your wire-
less router for more information.
