.If you have trouble connecting the radio to your wireless network, these steps may help to resolve the
problem:

Confirm 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 configured a static IP address on the radio.
Check that you firewall is not blocking any outgoing ports. As a minimum the radio needs access to UDP and TCP
ports 80,554,1755,5000,and 7070.
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'sMAC address to the list
of allowed equipment in your accesspoint. The Internet Radio's MAC address can be found using the menu item
Configure->Network Config ->View Config -> MAC address. You will need to refer to the guide for you 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(ESSID) is 'Hidden'(a setting on the wireless access point), then you can either turn on
the name, or you can manually enter the nameinto the internet radio and media player, Select Configure, Select
network, Enter ESSID. Confirm if the Network is encrypted, e.g. requires a WEP or WPA key, then enter the network
name.

The station has too many people trying to attach to the radio station server and the server capacity is not large
enough.

anymore.The link on the radio is out of date. This is updated automatically every day, so the next time you turn on the
link will be recognised.The internet connection between the server (often located in a different country) and you is
slow. Some internet service providers may fail to stream in certain geographical areas. Try using a PC to play back
the stream via the broadcaster's web sit. If you can play back the station with a PC, use the form at

the radio.If you have a laptop, try connecting it if your Internet Radio cannot find the station.
