➤ Connecting to a network

En

You can choose between wired network connection and wireless network connection (p. 32) depending upon your network environment.

Network connection allows you to listen to Internet radio stations and play music files with AirPlay or your computer (media service) via this unit. You can operate the unit with a mobile 
device to which the MusicCast CONTROLLER app has been installed, allowing you to enjoy listening to a variety of audio sources via this unit.

• Some security software installed on your computer, or network device settings (such as a firewall), may 

block the unit’s access to your computer or Internet radio stations. Should this occur, change security 
software and/or network device settings.

• A network connection cannot be established if the MAC address filter on your router is enabled. Check your 

router’s settings.

• To configure your router’s subnet mask manually, apply the same subnet used by this unit to all devices.

• Use of a broadband connection is recommended when using Internet services.

• If your router supports DHCP, network settings for the unit need not be configured. Network parameters 

(such as the IP address) will be assigned automatically. If your router does not support DHCP, or if you 
prefer to configure network parameters manually, you must configure network settings yourself (p. 54).

• You can verify that network parameters (such as the IP address) have been properly assigned to the unit by 

selecting “Information” (p. 54) from the setup menu.

• See our website for more information on the MusicCast CONTROLLER app.

To use a wired network connection, connect the unit to a router via an STP network 
cable (category 5 or higher straight cable; not supplied).

• If the unit is already connected to a wireless network and you would like to switch to a wired connection, 

change “Network” in the setup menu to “Wired”.
