In order to connect wirelessly directly to a Squeezebox2, you'll need
to set up an "ad hoc" network on your Windows machine, then choose
that with the player setup.

Thank you for all comments. The SB2 is now on place in the kitchen, see

- the display was turned 180-degrees. With a hidden power amplifier and
