FAQ’s
What is AirPlay?
AirPlay is a wireless audio and video platform designed by Apple to stream digital media over a home network (Wi-Fi or Ethernet). AirPlay is
built-in to iTunes and the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch running the latest software. For AirPlay enabled speakers, this means:
1. Consumers can stream their iTunes music to our iW3 AirPlay enabled speaker, their Apple TV, or other AirPlay enabled speakers.
2. iPad/iPhone/iPod touch owners can stream their iPod music AND audio content from other music apps like Pandora and iHeartRadio
to our iW3 AirPlay enabled speaker, their Apple TV, or other AirPlay enabled speakers.
3. iTunes is unique because a user can stream whatever is playing in iTunes to multiple speakers around the house.
4. iOS devices (iPad/iPhone/iPod touch) can only stream to one AirPlay enabled device at a time.

Can I stream audio wirelessly to the iW3 without a network connection?

iHome iW3’s may be used. An iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch can only stream to a single iW3 speaker.

iHome does not recommend using iW3 on security networks configured with WEP security due to inconsistencies in compatibility with that
aging security standard. The iW3 does not support WPA/WPA2 Enterprise security types.
For instructions on changing security types of your home network, refer to your Wi-Fi access-point's documentation. For best results, ensure
your Wi-Fi access point is Wi-Fi-certified and is configured to support 802.11g communications.
