–Make sure that the hub or router is on. For details, refer to the documentation supplied with the hub or router.
–Turn on the router before turning on the receiver.
–Verify that the receiver and hub or router are connected with network cables (page 23).
–Make sure that the IP address acquisition method is consistent with the network configuration (page 35).
•Verify that the name of the VAIO computer to which you want to connect appears in the Select a Server screen (page 49). Any VAIO computer to which you already connected appears on this screen.
•If you disconnect the amplifier power cord, all the registered VAIO computer information is lost, therefore you must connect the amplifier to the VAIO computer. (In this situation, all the receiver settings except the IP address are reset.)
•When you connect the receiver to a VAIO computer for the first time, you cannot use Network Media to start the VAIO computer from standby.
•In some instances, you may not be able to start some VAIO computers with Network Media If you are using a wireless LAN or other type of network card, you may also not be able to start the VAIO computer. If you are using a notebook VAIO computer, you cannot start it when it is hibernating.
VAIO computers can only be started from standby and hibernation with Network Media when the computer network connector is used.
The audio and video from Network Media do not reach the television.•Verify that the receiver is on (page 18).
•Verify that the receiver and television are correctly connected (page 14).
•Verify that the television video input is switched to the video input from the receiver.

–The hub or router is
•There may be an excessive load on the connected VAIO computer or on the network. Setting the television function of Network Media Live Mode to High Quality increases the load. Select Standard or Low Bandwidth instead (page 72).
•If the VAIO computer runs
•To protect the television tube, if the system is idle for 15 minutes while Network Media is displaying the menu screen or playing music, the screen is automatically darkened (this is not a malfunction). Press a remote button to restore the screen to its normal brightness. To protect the tube, do not leave the menu screen displayed for long periods.
Cannot connect to the VAIO computer. (The “Cannot connect to the server” message appears).
•Verify that the VAIO computer is on. (To be able to start the VAIO computer with Network Media, the VAIO computer must be on standby hibernating, and you must have previously performed the procedure outlined in Useful setting 3 (page 53).)
•Verify that the receiver IP address can be obtained correctly.
When the IP Address setting is Obtain an IP address automatically, and the acquisition is performed correctly, the IP address appears in the IP Address screen. If there is no IP address in the IP Address screen, verify the following:
–If your receiver and VAIO computer (one unit each) are directly connected, verify that you are using a
