Question 8

I cannot get SSID name, the 

screen always displays: ‘Can’t get any 
SSID!!’

Answer:

When the WLAN USB Adapter is con-
nected to the player, it needs some time to 
get initialized. Please wait for about 1~2 
minutes and try refreshing the SSID list 
again. 

Question 9

I cannot see fi les shared on my 

computer via Browser->Network menu.

Answer:
Please check following items:
1. Connect the player to network and ob-

tain an IP address fi rst;

2. Please enable NetBIOS of TCP/IP on 

computer;

3. Please check your PC’s fi rewall settings;
4. Please enable your PC’s ‘Guest’ ac-

count;

5. Please share the folders which you wish 

to browse on your PC, and make sure 
that ‘Everyone’ or ‘Guest’ has the right 
to access.

Question 10

.

 I confi gured everything cor-

rectly, but still cannot get the wireless net-
work or UPnP function to work.

Answer:

Are you using a fi rewall such as Norton 
Internet Security, McAfee Personal Fire-
wall, Zone Alarm, etc. or even the built-in 
fi rewall of Windows XP? (Don’t forget that 
Service Pack 2 for Windows XP automati-
cally upgrades your fi rewall and turn it on 
by default) 
If you have a fi rewall, it may need to be 
confi gured or have exceptions created to 
allow you to see and communicate with the 
player on the network. To test if your fi re-
wall is preventing network communication 
(including PING and access shared fold-
ers), try disabling it to see if you can con-
nect. If you can connect with the fi rewall 
disabled, you may need to add the player 

to the ‘Trusted’ list or confi gure the fi rewall 
for local intranet access. Worst-case, dis-
able your fi rewall long enough to use the 
player, then enable it again when done.

Question 11

I am using the 802.11n Wi-Fi 

dongle with an 802.11n wireless router, why 
the speed is still 802.11g 54Mbps rather 
than 300Mbps?

Answer:

The IEEE 802.11n Draft standard prohibits 
using high throughput with WEP or TKIP 
as the unicast cipher. If you use these en-
cryption methods (e.g. WEP, WPA-TKIP), 
your data rate will drop to 54 Mbps. You 
may contact the Access Point or router 
manufacturer to download the latest 
fi rmware, or try other encryption methods 
(WPA2-AES or WPA2-TKIP), or choose to 
confi gure an unsecured profi le, but this 
option is not recommended.

Question 12

Why do some supported 

photo formats, cannot be shown in the 
photo function?   

Answer:

In the JPEG format there are different 
modes. The player doesn’t support all 
the modes. So you have to change your 
photo format fi rst as follow: 
(1) Use Photoshop or similar software to 
open the photo;
(2) Choose “save as” from the menu and 
select the picture format as JPEG, input the 
fi le name and click the “save” icon; 

Question 13

Why couldn’t the player fi nd 

the hard disc?  

Answer:

Make sure the fi rmware is installed cor-
rectly, and no system partitions on the 
HDD were deleted. If hard disc failure 
occurs, please backup your data and 
reinstall the fi rmware.
