Netgear EVAW111 – N300 Wireless USB Adapter Installation Guide

Installation Guide

You can connect your USB wireless adapter when you install the Digital Entertainer 
Live or you can add it later and change your network connection from Ethernet to 
wireless. 

To connect your USB wireless adapter and install the Digital Entertainer Live:

Use A/V or HDMI cable to connect the Digital Entertainer Live to your TV (see 
the Digital Entertainer Live Installation Guide).

If you are using HDMI cable, make sure that the TV is set for HDMI and that 

you are getting an HDMI signal from the TV.

Insert your USB wireless adapter into a USB port on the rear panel of the DE 
Live before you connect the DE Live power adapter.

Connect the power adapter to the Digital Entertainer Live and plug the power 
cord into an outlet.

Turn on your TV. If you do not see the Digital Entertainer Live display, use your 

TV remote control to change the TV input.

The Digital Entertainer Live attempts to locate services and load channels from 
the Internet. Then the TV displays a prompt asking if you want to switch to 
wireless. 

Aim the remote control that came with your DE Live at the remote eye on the 
DE Live front panel and select Yes.

The DE Live scans for wireless networks in your area. It displays the Choose 
your Wireless Network screen, which lists the wireless networks that it 
discovers. 

The instructions in this section assume that you installed the Digital Entertainer Live 
with an Ethernet connection as described in the Digital Entertainer Live Installation 
Guide.

To connect your USB wireless adapter and change from Ethernet to wireless:

Make sure that the Digital Entertainer Live is powered on.

With your TV remote control, change the TV input to display the Digital 
Entertainer Live menu onscreen.

Insert your USB wireless adapter into a USB port on the DE Live rear panel.

The LED on your USB wireless adapter lights up indicating that it is securely 
connected to the USB port.

When the Do you want to switch to wireless? prompt displays on your TV, 
select Yes. 

The Digital Entertainer Live scans for wireless networks in your area. It displays 
the Choose your Wireless Network screen, which lists the wireless networks 
that it discovers. 

. 

After you have connected your USB wireless adapter, you can join a wireless 
network from the Choose your Wireless Network screen.

Select your wireless network from the list.

If the network uses wireless security the USB wireless adapter detects it and 

you are prompted to enter the password. NETGEAR strongly recommends 
that you use wireless security to protect your network.

The USB wireless adapter supports NETGEAR Push 'N' Connect (WPS). If 
the selected wireless router or access point supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup 
(WPS), you can choose to connect either via WPS or manually.

The Network wizard attempts to do the following:

Connect to your home network.

Connect to the Internet.

Locate the VuNow server on the Internet.

Display the Downlink Speed from the VuNow service.

The Network wizard displays its progress. When all tasks are completed the 
following message is displayed:
