Question 10. I configured everything correctly, but still cannot get the wireless network or UPnP function to work. Answer: Are you using a firewall such as Norton Internet Security, McAfee Personal Firewall, Zone Alarm, etc. or even the built-in firewall of Windows XP? (Don't forget that Service Pack 2 for Windows XP automatically upgrades your firewall and turn it on by default) If you have a firewall, it may need to be configured or have exceptions created to allow you to see and communicate with the player on the network. To test if your firewall is preventing network communication (including PING and access shared folders), try disabling it to see if you can connect. If you can connect with the firewall disabled, you may need to add the player to the 'Trusted' list or configure the firewall for local intranet access. Worst-case, disable your firewall 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 encryption 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 firmware, or try other encryption methods (WPA2-AES or WPA2-TKIP), or choose to configure an unsecured profile, but this option is not recommended.

Question 10. I configured everything correctly, but still cannot get the wireless network
or UPnP function to work.
Answer:
Are you using a firewall such as Norton Internet Security, McAfee Personal Firewall, Zone
Alarm, etc. or even the built-in firewall of Windows XP? (Don’t forget that Service Pack 2 for
Windows XP automatically upgrades your firewall and turn it on by default)
If you have a firewall, it may need to be configured or have exceptions created to allow you to
see and communicate with the player on the network. To test if your firewall is preventing
network communication (including PING and access shared folders), try disabling it to see if
you can connect. If you can connect with the firewall disabled, you may need to add the player
to the ‘Trusted’ list or configure the firewall for local intranet access. Worst-case, disable your
firewall 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

Answer:
The IEEE 802.11n Draft standard prohibits using high throughput with WEP or TKIP as the
