Network Configuration
IP address/Proxy setting
In case the router connected to the LAN terminal on this 
receiver is a broadband router (with a built-in DHCP server 
function), simply turn on the DHCP server function, and you 
will not need to set up the network manually. You must set up 
the network as described below only when you have 
connected this receiver to a broadband router without a 
DHCP server function. Before you set up the network, consult 
with your ISP or the network manager for the required 
settings. It is advised that you also refer to the operation 
manual supplied with your network component.
IP Address
The IP address to be entered must be defined within the 
following ranges. If the IP address defined is beyond the 
following ranges, you cannot play back audio files stored on 
components on the network or listen to Internet radio 
stations.
Class A: 10.0.0.1 to 10.255.255.254
Class B: 172.16.0.1 to 172.31.255.254
Class C: 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.255.254
Subnet Mask
In case an xDSL modem or a terminal adapter is directly 
connected to this receiver, enter the subnet mask provided 
by your ISP on paper. In most cases, enter 255.255.255.0.
Default Gateway
In case a gateway (router) is connected to this receiver, 
enter the corresponding IP address.
Primary DNS Server/Secondary DNS Server
In case there is only one DNS server address provided by 
your ISP on paper, enter it in the “Primary DNS Server” 
field. In case there are more than two DNS server 
addresses, enter “Secondary DNS Server” in the other 
DNS server address field.
Proxy Hostname/Proxy Port
This setting is required when you connect this receiver to 
the Internet via a proxy server. Enter the IP address of your 
proxy server in the “Proxy Hostname” field. Also, enter the 
port number of your proxy server in the “Proxy Port” field.

If there is no DHCP server on the network and you select

, this receiver will use its own Auto IP function to 
determine the IP address.
The IP address determined by the Auto IP function is 
169.254.X.X. You cannot listen to an Internet radio
