Trouble Shooting

1. If you have trouble connecting the radio to your wireless network, these steps may

help to resolve the problem:

- Conrm that a Wi-Fi or Ethernet Wired connected PC can access the internet (i.e. can

browse the web) using the same network.

- Check that a DHCP server is available, or that you have congured a static IP address on the

radio.

- Check that your rewall is not blocking any outgoing ports.

- Some access points may be set so that only equipment with registered MAC addresses can

connect to them. This is one possible cause of the Internet Radio being unable to connect to

the Wi-Fi network, and the Internet Radio display will show Bad ESSID or key. To overcome

this problem you will need to add the Internet Radio's MAC address to the list of allowed

equipment in your access point. The Internet Radio's MAC address can be found using the

menu Information Center > System Information > Wireless Info > MAC address. You will

need to refer to the guide for your Access Point in order to enter the Internet Radio as an

allowed piece of equipment.

- If you have an encrypted network, check that you have entered the correct key or passphrase

into the radio. Remember that text-format keys are case sensitive.

- If your wireless network name (SSID) is 'Hidden'(a setting on the wireless access point), then

you can either turn on the name, or you can manually enter the name into the internet radio

and media player, Select Network -> Manual Conguration-> Wireless ->

Enter SSID>. Conrm if the Network is encrypted, e.g. requires a WEP or WPA key, then

enter the network name.

2. If your radio can connect to the network successfully, but is unable to play particular

stations, it may be due to one of the following reasons:

- The station is not broadcasting at this time of the day (remember it may be located in a

different time zone).

- The station has too many people trying to attach to the radio station server and the server

capacity is not large enough.

- The station has reached the maximum allowed number of simultaneous listeners.

- The station is not broadcasting anymore.

- The internet connection between the server (often located in a different country) and yours is

slow. Some internet service providers may fail to stream in certain geographical areas.

3. When you scan for PCs under UPnP function, none can be found, or the PC you are

looking for does not appear in the list:

- You have not connected to the wireless Access point. On the internet radio, select

'Conguration', 'Network ', 'Wireless network connection' and then select your Wireless

network. (You may need to enter a security key to access the network wirelessly).

- You have a rewall set on your PC which is stopping you accessing shared les.

- If you have a third party rewall that will have its own control panel and you will need to

consult the manual for your rewall.

- If your PC is connected to a managed network, with a server sometimes the PC being

searched for needs to be set to Home group.

- 13 -

4. You can see the PC you want to play music from, but cannot nd any folders on the

PC:

- You have a rewall running which is preventing the internet radio from seeing the shared

folder. As a quick check, you can disable rewalls to see if this overcomes the problem. If this

resolves the issue then you can either leave the rewall off or allow le sharing through the

re wall.

Note: If your rewall is required to provide security for your system, it should not be left off.

5. If the Internet Radio keeps re-buffering radio station:

- The Internet Radio is streaming the data from the radio station via your broadband

connection, if there is a high error rate on your broadband connection, or the connection is

intermittent, then it will cause the Internet Radio to pause until the connection is re-

established and it has received enough data to start playing again.

- If your Internet Radio keeps stopping, please check the DSL modem to ensure that the

Broadband line is not suffering a high error rate or disconnections. If you are experiencing

these problems, you will need to contact your broadband supplier.

6. What is Buffering?

When playing a stream, the Internet Radio/Media player, downloads a small amount of the

stream before it starts playing. This is used to ll in any gaps in the stream that may occur if the

internet or the wireless network is busy.

The Internet Radio streams music data from the PC while you are listening. If a stream gets

blocked or experiences Internet congestion while transferring it may stop/interfere with the

quality of play. If this happens, check your internet connection speed- it must be faster than

the speed of the streams.
