Connections 6: Connecting to the network If you have an Internet connection, you can connect this receiver to the Internet as well. You can connect through a wireless or a wired LAN connection. System requirements The following system environment is required to use the network function of the receiver. A Broadband line connection A Broadband line connection to the Internet is required in order to listen to Sony Entertainment Network (SEN) and to update the software of the receiver. Modem This is the device that is connected to the broadband line to communicate with the Internet. Some of these devices are integrated with the router. Router • Use a router compatible with 100 Mbps or greater transmission speeds to enjoy content on your home network. • We recommend that you use a router equipped with the built-in DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server. This function automatically assigns IP addresses on the LAN. • Use a wireless LAN router/access point if you want to use a wireless LAN connection. LAN cable (CAT5) (For a wired LAN connection only) • We recommend that you use this type of cable for a wired LAN. Some flat-type LAN cables are easily affected by noise. We recommend that you use normal-type cables. • If the receiver is used in an environment in which there is power supply noise from electric products or in a noisy network environment, use a shielded-type LAN cable. Server A server is a device which delivers content (music, photos, and videos) to a DLNA device on a home network. A device that can be used as a server (a computer, etc.) must be connected to your wireless or wired LAN home network*. * For details on servers which are compatible with this receiver, see page 66. 35US
