Connecting to a PC through a network
You can play pictures, music, and videos located on your PC through a network connection using
AllShare Play
.
✎
For more information on how to configure your product and connect it to your network, refer to “Setting up the
Network” in this manual.
✎
To view content located on your PC, you must have connected your product and your PC to your LAN and
downloaded and then installed AllShare PC Software on your PC.
✎
We recommend you locate both your product and PC in the same network subnet. IP addresses have four parts,
separated by periods (111.222.333.444). If your product and PC are in the same subnet, the first 3 parts of the
product IP address and the PC IP address (111.222.333) will be the same and only the last part (the host address)
will be different.
