Connecting to your computer network - contd.

If you have followed the steps on the preceding pages successfully, your radio will have connected to your router, and then made a connection to the Internet and set its clock. If this is the case, then you can try listening to radio stations via the Internet as described on page 15 onwards.

Changing the network connection

In the sections above, you chose how your radio would be connected, either using a WiFi connection, or using a wired Ethernet cable. From time to time, you may find that you need to connect differently, or to different computer networks. The Internet setup menu allows you to configure your radio’s network settings, scan for a connection to an alternative wireless network, or to manually configure the network parameters.

The steps outlined below describe how you can do this. If you have no need to do this, however, please skip to page 15.

Configuring the radio to use the wired Ethernet connection

1.From the radio’s Internet setup menu, select 'Wizard'. This menu will present you with details of any WiFi networks. Scroll down the list using the Tuning/Select control to the '[Wired]' options. Press the control to select this.

The radio will switch to using its Ethernet connection to communicate with the network. By default the radio will acquire an IP address from your router using DHCP. This will require your radio to be physically connected to a wired Ethernet using the RJ-45 socket at the back of the radio.

Configuring the radio to use the WiFi connection

2.From the radio’s Internet setup menu, select 'Wizard'. This menu will present you with details of any WiFi networks which are found. Scroll down the list using the Tuning/Select control to desired network name. Press the control to select this.

The radio will switch to using its WiFi system to communicate with the network. Depending on the network settings you may need to enter an encryption key (see page 11). By default the radio will acquire an IP address from your router using DHCP.
