How difficult/complicated/technical is set up? What additional support accessories (cables, plugs, etc) are needed (not included)

You will need a receiver that will power the speakers. Also an RCA cable for the Subwoofer input.

This was a very simple install.I had an existing system and wanted to upgrade so the set up was easy. In the box you receive only the speakers,no plugs or cables are included with this system. The sub is self powered,just plug it in. Hope this helps

Just stereo wiring that you can pick up at any electronics store or you can utilize wireless units (which I did for the speakers in the back) but you still need those speaker wires.Additional to the speakers you will need a stereo system as well as these are speakers and speakers only. No stand is included although they are pictured with them, so mounting accessories e.g. Stand, shelf or a hanging fixture may be necessary.I think that's it...

You will need to supply any cables you will need besides the power adapter and cord.

I didn't set up the computer and my son wasn't sure. We also bought a new computer at the same time and after setting up both pieces, I do know that we didn't have to purchase any cords/cables or use the ones from our previous computer. I checked the box and it shows a short cable as well as a plug in coming with the monitor. Hope this helps!

This is not a plug and play device - you need to follow the setup instructions exactly for both radios, routers, and laptop computer - for your specific configuration. It took me a while to get all the settings correct. Much easier if you get it all working in one room, connecting your laptop to each using a direct wired connection to set them up, then test the wireless link and make sure it works, before you start climbing trees. The Engenius support line was helpful with my setup, so I suggest you call them to walk you through the steps or troubleshoot specific issues. Mine worked great between two houses at about 1/2 mile distance - one mounted in a tree, the other placed in a window.

I'm trying to do that. I tought it was "plug and play" but i found many steps..not easy!

It's quite simple , just plug and play. If you are adding additional speakers you will need to run wire to them. If you bought the base you will need to lift the unit onto it. You should not need a tech for any of this.

I returned the one I bought because I couldn't figure out how to set it up, so I'm not the one to help with this. Good luck.

Make sure you have adequate power supply. I did not receive one so I had to go to Radio Shack. Need cable from DSL/Broadboard green jack in modem to phone jack in wall. My "wall" is connection to AT&T DSL only (no telephone). Need ethernet cable from one of yellow jacks on modem to ethernet jack on computer (desktop for me). To effectively get it to work you'll have to call AT&T to get connected. They will talk you through it. It will take awhile. Maybe 30-45 minutes to do total set up.

You need an cat5 ethernet cord. I also found the system quite buggy. Would probably gotten something else. Also wouldnt do the update but leave it as is? Troublesome but attractive hardware.

Yes. Lot's of extra cable for you. Proprietary plugs. Difficult to shorten.

It needs to be hooked up to a computer to get set up. It doesn't need the computer to function. It is complicated to set up. I had my IT friend do it and it took him a few hours.

I had a professional come and install in my absence, he had to cut a box behind the TV in the wall for $K converter and he fixed it with a mount he suggested, also I had a sound bar installed just below the screen.I wish I had run an Ethernet wire from my router, even though I mage to trouble shoot wireless connection by using the Media part the WIFI spectrum at 5K htz.

There is no "setup" as long as you can plug this in to an ethernet cable giving DHCP like most hotels have. Some hotels are wifi only, but most i deal with still have ethernet. Bring an extra power supply to power the ASUS.
