Abstract:
An example computing device includes programming to perform functions including, while operating on a secure WLAN, (a) receiving user input indicating that a user wishes to set up a playback device to operate on the secure WLAN and (b) receiving a first message indicating that a given playback device is available for setup, then transmitting a response to the first message that facilitates establishing an initial communication path with the given playback device outside of the secure WLAN. The functions also include transmitting, to the given playback device via the initial communication path, a second message containing network configuration parameters including an identifier of, and a security key for, the secure WLAN, then detecting an indication that the given playback device has successfully received the network configuration parameters. The functions also include transitioning from communicating with the given playback device via the initial communication path to communicating with the given playback device via the secure WLAN.

Claim (Index 20):
A method comprising:\n while operating on a secure wireless local area network (WLAN), (a) receiving user input indicating that a user wishes to set up a playback device to operate on the secure WLAN and (b) receiving a first message indicating that a given playback device is available for setup; after receiving the user input and receiving the first message, transmitting a response to the first message that facilitates establishing an initial communication path with the given playback device, wherein the initial communication path is outside of the secure WLAN; transmitting, to the given playback device via the initial communication path, at least a second message containing network configuration parameters, wherein the network configuration parameters comprise an identifier of the secure WLAN and a security key for the secure WLAN; after transmitting at least the second message containing the network configuration parameters, detecting an indication that the given playback device has successfully received the network configuration parameters; and after detecting the indication, transitioning from communicating with the given playback device via the initial communication path to communicating with the given playback device via the secure WLAN.
