Since the receiver on its own doesn't have a UI, the issue you face is
how to set it up on your network. There is no officially supported way
to do this, but there are some Perl Scripts you can download that
provide a method do the necessary configuration using text commands. 

For more info, look here: http://projects.robinbowes.com/Net-UDAP/trac


This is not a polished or user-friendly program, so it may not suit
everyone and as I say it is *not* supported by Logitech. It is possible
that you could buy a receiver and find the task of setting it up too
difficult to complete, depending on your competence and confidence in
such matters.

Once you have the receiver configured properly on your local network,
it will be possible to use SqueezePlay or the Web UI to SqueezeCenter to
control the player. Squeezeplay can be downloaded from the nighly Beta
builds section of the web site, here:
http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.3. 

If you can afford it, you might want to consider getting a full
Squeezebox Classic, since it will be much easier to set up on the
network and will be fully supported by Logitech for that purpose. 

Best regards,
