Using Your Director

NOTE: The wireless network name is case‑sensitive. Capital letters can be found immediately after the group of lowercase letters.

Once the wireless network name has been selected, a screen will appear asking for the wireless security mode utilized on the network.

•• Open  If your network doesn’t have wireless security enabled, the open option should be selected.

NOTE: Linksys recommends using some form of wireless security on your network to help safeguard your personal information. Wireless security is typically configured on your router. Refer to the documentation included with your router for details on enabling wireless security.

•• Shared  If your network uses WEP security, select this option and enter in WEP key number 1. Enter the appropriate number of hexadecimal characters (“0” to “9” and “A” to “F”). For 64-bit encryption, enter exactly 10 hexadecimal characters. For 128‑bit encryption, enter exactly 26 hexadecimal characters.

•• WPA  Select TKIP or AES and enter the network’s Passphrase (also called a pre-shared key) of 8-63 characters.

•• WP2  Select TKIP or AES and enter the network’s Passphrase (also called a pre-shared key) of 8-63 characters.

•• Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ Discovery  This option is used to connect to your router using theWi-Fi Protected Setup™button on the Wireless Home Audio Director and the Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ button on your router..

•• Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ Pin Setting  Select this option to enter the Wireless Home Audio Director’s PIN number on the router.

Advanced  This option is used for IP configuration. A dynamic or static IP address can be selected here.

•• Dynamic IP  The dynamic IP option should be selected if your router or network connection automatically provides an IP address to devices on the network. Once this option is selected, the Details screen can be used to verify that an IP address has been obtained.

•• Static IP  Selecting Static IP will prompt you to enter the IP address. To enter the IP address using the remote control, remove the existing address by using the left arrow on the Navigation Halo. Numbers can be entered manually using the keypad or arrow up and down on the Navigation Halo to scroll through the number selections. To move to the next digit, use the right arrow on the Navigation Halo. To enter a dot (.) or period in the IP address, press the zero (0) button twice.

Details  This option displays the current network connection settings including the wireless network name, wireless security type, DHCP status, IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS information.

Zones and Libraries

Rename Zone  This option is used to rename a device with a name that will allow you to know where it is located in your home. This makes it much easier to select which areas to play music to or link.

Rediscover  If one of the Wireless Home Audio devices or one of your libraries on the network is not appearing, use this option to rescan for any devices or libraries that are not showing up.
