Internet Radio Quick Start
What you need before starting
Before you can use your Internet radio, you need the following:
•
A broadband Internet connection.
•
Access point to internet through wireless LAN. (wired LAN connection
is also possible with a Rotel supplied USB Ethernet adaptor)
With wireless LAN connection, internet radio should work within 100
metres of the wireless access point, subject to the router/Wi-Fi gateway
being placed in the optimum area for your location. The user can confirm
the WiFi Strength under the settings menu. (Network--->Settings-->WiFi
Strength)
Make sure that your LAN is connected properly and is able to access
the internet. To access internet radio stations an internet connection is
required.
First Time Connection To The Network
Plug in the USB Wi-Fi dongle to the rear USB port and push the POWER
button to power up this unit. The display on the front will light up and
display:
Starting ... ...
After a few seconds, it start to scan network.
If it can not find one the display will say:
NO NETWORK FOUND
When the radio finds your network, it displays the ESSID for the access
point on the screen – this is a name that is allocated to the access point
by the person who set up the network – for example:
<
MY NETWORK
It is possible, and in some locations highly likely, that your unit will find
more than one wireless access point if using wireless connection, in which
case you can choose which one you want to connect to. Turn the knob on
the panel to see the ESSID for each access point the radio has found.
If the screen displays "Enter WEP key" or "Enter WPA key" then the network
is using one of the encryption systems, Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
or Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). Please obtain the access code from
the person who set up your wireless network, or check the user manual
of your router for this information. Input the code into the unit to gain
access to the wireless LAN.
Note: If you would like to use a static IP address, or if the unit can not
automatically get an IP address, then please see the 'Network config'
section under the 'Settings' section at the end of the manual.
