Advanced Setup – Part 1

Setting the Network Setup

•If you are using a broadband router (DHCP function), there is no need to make the settings at “Setting the IP Address” and “Setting the Proxy”, since the DHCP function is set to “ON” in the AVR-5805CI’s default settings.

•If the AVR-5805CI is being used connected to a network without the DHCP function, the network settings must be made. In this case, some knowledge of networks is required.

2Setting the IP Address

Set this when “OFF” is set for “DHCP”.

1 Press the CURSOR D or H button to select “Network Setup” at the “Option Setup” menu, then press the ENTER button.

• The “Network Setup” screen appears.

2

Press the CURSOR D or H button to select “IP
Address”, then press the ENTER button.

• The “IP Address” screen appears.

The IP address, etc., is not displayed when “DHCP” is set to “ON” and the unit is not connected to a network.

3 Press the CURSOR F or G button to select “OFF”.

• The DHCP function is disabled.

4 Press the CURSOR D or H button to select the desired setting item, then press the CURSOR G button and CURSOR D or H button to input the address.

IP Address:

Set the IP address within the ranges shown below. The Network Audio function cannot be used if other IP addresses are set.

CLASS A: 10.0.0.0 ~ 10.255.255.255

CLASS B: 172.16.0.0 ~ 172.31.255.255

CLASS C: 192.168.0.0 ~ 192.168.255.255

Subnet Mask:

When connecting an xDSL modem or terminal adapter directly to the AVR-5805CI, input the subnet mask indicated in the documentation supplied by your provider. Normally input 255.255.255.0.

Gateway:

When connected to a gateway (router), input its IP address.

Primary DNS / Secondary DNS:

 

If there is only one DNS address indicated in the

• DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol):

These are systems by which the IP address and other network settings are automatically set for the AVR-5805CI, computer, broadband router and network devices.

• DNS (Domain Name System):

This is a system for converting the domain names used when browsing Internet sites (for example, “www.denon.jp”) into the IP addresses actually used for communications (for example, “202.221.192.106”).
