An Access Point is a device that allows you
to connect to your home network wirelessly.
y
The wireless network operate at 2.4GHz
radio frequencies that are also used by
other household devices such as cordless
telephone, Bluetooth® devices, microwave
oven, and can be affected by interference
from them.
y
Turn off all unused network equipment in
your local home network. Some devices
may generate network traffic.
y
For the purpose of the better transmission,
placing the player from the access point as
close as possible.
y
In some instances, placing the access point
or wireless router at least 0.45 m (1.5 ft.)
above the floor may improve the reception.
y
Move closer to the access point if possible
or re-orient the player so there is nothing
between it and the access point.
y
The reception quality over wireless depends
on many factors such as type of the access
point, distance between the player and
access point, and the location of the player.
y
Set your access point or wireless router to
Infrastructure mode. Ad-hoc mode is not
supported.
y
For best performance, a direct wired
connection from this player to your home
network’s router or cable/DSL modem
is always the best option. If the player
is far away from your router or cable/
DSL modem, Ethernet or LAN cables are
available at many stores in lengths of 50
feet and longer. If you do chose to use the
wireless option, note that performance can
sometimes be affected by other electronic
devices in the home.
