I show you how to get your Monster SoundStage speakers connected to your home Wi-Fi network in this episode. The process is easy, even if your router doesn't support WPS (if it does, check out our Monster SoundStage WPS tutorial instead!)

Simply use the Monster SoundStage app after connected to the Wi-Fi network put out by the SoundStage speaker itself. Follow the prompts and use your web browser to provide the credentials for your network of choice after naming your speaker, and SoundStage takes care of the rest. Give it a couple of minutes, and your Monster SoundStage speaker will join your home network, ready to stream your favorite music.

Once you pick up a Monster SoundStage wireless speaker, the first thing you'll want to do is get it hooked up to your wireless network. The easiest way to do this is to use the WPS feature that's built-in to the entire SoundStage speaker line! All you need to do is press the WPS button on your router (make sure it has one,) and then press the WPS button on the SoundStage speaker itself. After a couple of minutes, your Monster SoundStage will be connected to your home network and ready to stream!

Check out the video for a more in-depth look at how it all works.
