Dear Sam9s and Somakmaitra,
I am really overwhelmed to see you are so eager to help me out...!!:clapping:
No, really - i mean it. Thanks a ton for your helpful predicament. I am really obligated to you both. Coming to the issue at hand, YES - i tried so far everything at my home only. And beleive me - in case of Pi music box it worked while in case of the other two, it didn't. The fact that out of desperation to see the Pi in my laptop as a networked device i was tinkering will all sorts of settings (its windows 7 on an HP elitebook) and while doing so, it really threw an IP address on the TV(display) command prompt.
Going forward, i realized i will have to have a router. Even if i configure it at office, i will be wanting to enjoy music at home. So what's the point? I think a preconfigured Pi at office will not work at home as the settings will not remain valid, right?
So i bought a router......................

Without a ssid for WiFi you will get a loop back. - what exactly it means??
