¢Others

•When the contract with your provider is of the type by
which the network settings are made manually, you must
make the “Network Setup” ( page 123, 124).
•The AVR-4806CI is not compatible with PPPoE. If your
contract is of the PPPoE setting type, you need a PPPoE-
compatible router.
•For some ISPs (Internet Service Providers), you may have
to make proxy server settings in order to use the Internet
radio function. If proxy server settings for connecting to the
Internet have been made on the computer, make the same
settings on the AVR-4806CI.
•The AVR-4806CI is designed to make the network settings
automatically using the DHCP and Auto IP functions.
