MAC Address Control on the Wireless Network

If you are using MAC Address Control on your wireless network, you will need to know the MAC address of your Wireless Music Receiver. The MAC address is a unique number that identifies your device on the network. It consists of a series of numbers and letters in the following format: xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx

The MAC address for your Wireless Music Receiver is printed on the bottom of the device. It can also be displayed on the LCD screen. See ‘Viewing Network Status Settings’.

You must change your wireless network settings to exclude the Wireless Music Receiver’s MAC address from filtering. Please refer to your wireless network’s documentation for details on how to do this.
