Changing the network connection

Connecting to your computer network - cont.

If you have followed the steps on the preceding pages successfully, your sound system 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 19 onwards.

Changing the network connection

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

The steps outlined below describe how you can do this - see also the section 'Network profiles' on page 87. If you have no need to do this, however, please skip to page 19.

Configuring the sound system to use an alternative WiFi connection

1.From the Network settings menu select 'Network wizard'. This will present you with details of any WiFi networks that are found. Scroll down the list using the Tuning/Select control to the desired network name. Press the control to select this network.

The radio will then use its WiFi system to communicate with the network. Depending on the settings for the new network you may need to enter an encryption key (see pages 13-14). By default the sound system will then acquire an IP address and other network settings from your router using DHCP.

Configuring the sound system to use the wired Ethernet connection

2.Connect your radio to your router using an Ethernet cable plugged into the RJ-45 socket at the back of the unit. From the Network settings menu select 'Network wizard'. This will present you with details of any WiFi networks that are found. Scroll down the list to the '[Wired]' option using the Tuning/Select control. Press the control to select this.

The sound system will then use its Ethernet connection to communicate with the network. By default the unit will then acquire an IP address and other network settings from your router using DHCP.
