As far as I recall, the basic process is that during setup the Qb establishes a small WiFi network, you connect to that with your smartphone and follow the instructions. The Qb gets the WiFi credentials from your smartphone and when setup is finished, you connect your smart phone back to your normal WiFi network.

I don’t remember an IP address. I think the WiFi network was called something like Naim muso Qb setup. You let your smartphone connect to that and then maybe use your browser. But maybe someone who has done this more recently can elucidate.
You shouldn’t need any browser here. Just download the App to your phone or tablet. Open it up. Push in the reset pin on the Mu-So. and wait. Then follow the instruction steps on the App. Make sure you have good strong wifi reception - if in doubt do it close to the wifi router. Failing that, give support a call.
Use app to find the MuSo. It does this fine. Then sits there for 5 mins trying to find the latest f/w which, of course fails because it’s a private intranet.
Then goes to the main app screen showing the various music sources. No obvious way to change the wifi. Goto Settings and no way to change the wifi.
It’s been a stressful am and 2 hours on this hasn’t helped
I’ll try again at home tonight. Reset to defaults and try the app route…
I’d prefer the web browser but, as a I say, the IP address isn’t as advertised in the guide
Hi there. Just been through a painful process of reassociating my 1st gen muso with my wifi network so I do feel your pain. I am a little confused by some of your experiences though.
As Richard suggests you should attempt to add via the Naim app’ room setup process. The app should find your device which, in its wifi ready state (flashing purple light on mine) will be broadcasting its own network. Mine was some thing like “muso 4892”. The setup process adds the muso to YOUR existing network so once it is complete it will appear as a device on your home network and it’s original temporary network disappears. It should then have the same access to internet that any other of your devices does. I don’t understand your comments that the muso is connected but has no internet.
Have you somehow added your tablet to the temporary network rather than added the muso to your home network? Well done I guess. I have no idea how to do that.
If using an iOS device another approach is to go to settings/wifi in iOS and when you see the temporary muso network tap that and it will associate the speaker with your network.
Failing all that contact Naim support. They were very helpful with my issue although it took a while to get help as they are short staffed just now.
Good luck. I find the setup process for the muso devices infuriating and opaque.
Don’t forget that a full reset means pressing the paperclip button and holding for 6 seconds, then release.
Hopefully it’ll work flawlessly at home - it’s a long time ago that I set up mine but recall it simply worked for me (sorry!)
It looks like you aren’t waiting long enough for the muso’s inbuilt wifi to activate and become visible to your laptop.
Disconnect your laptop from your standard wifi. Select to connect to another network. Wait for a name along the lines of muso-xxxxx to appear. This may take several minutes - keep refreshing the available networks list. Connect to it.
When you’re connected I can’t remember if you have to start a browser and go to 192.168.1.12, or whether a window opens to ask for your wifi name. As soon as you put in the wifi name and password the muso will drop connection to your laptop and join your wifi network. Reconnect the laptop to your network if it doesn’t do it automatically.
