-Coming soon...+This setup is more complicated than a single playerIt will require additional networking equipment to link all of the players together so they can communicate with each otherYou will need a gigabyte router or network switch and one Ethernet cable per deviceConnect each player to the router or switch using the Ethernet cables only after they have been configured properly. 
 + 
 +**NOTE:** there are two ways to configure #@PPP@# to run multiple units in sync; //​Master/​Master//​ and //​Master/​Slave//​. 
 + 
 +In //​Master/​Slave//​ mode, only one player will be the //Master// while the other players will be //Slaves// to that //Master//. See the section [[:​faq:​mode_master_slave|Mode:​ How do I change a player from master mode to slave mode?]] on switching //Masters// to //Slaves//. This configuration is best for multi-monitor setups run by the client directly. 
 + 
 +In //​Master/​Master//​ mode, each player needs to have a unique IP address, such as ''​192.168.168.1'',​ ''​192.168.168.2'',​ and so on. You must do this before connecting each player to the router or switch. This is the most powerful way to configure a multi-player system.
