A method for configuring a device is performed at a target device with a processor and memory storing instructions for execution by the processor. In some implementations, the target device is a media presentation device, such as a WiFi enabled speaker system. Connection information is received from a configuration device, such as a laptop computer or mobile telephone, via an analog audio interface. The connection information includes first account credentials. In some implementations, the connection information also includes network configuration data such as a name of wireless network and a security key. The target device connects to a server system remote from the target device using the first account credentials.
