Hi, I have just got a new router so now my beosound 5 can't connect to my pc or the web wifi. Does anybody know how to get into windows on BS 5 so that I can connect it to my router?

More specific?

The BM/S5 doesn't have wifi. It is possible just to install any USB-Wifi adapter at the back of the BM5.

Enter the service mode and you'll get the windows desktop. Install then any adapter you like.

Make sure you copy the driverpack from the wifiadapter to a USB stick and copy them to a new folder on the data partition.

But a warning before you start with the wifi instead of the standard cable connection. It takes a lot more time to copy albums to the harddrive.

I have the usb wifi antenna for the BS 5 and have been connected to my previous router. How do I get into the service menu?
