Others
• If you have an Internet provider contract for a line on which
network settings are made manually, make the settings at GUI
menu “Manual Setup” – “Network Setup” (
v
page 35 ~ 38).
• With the AVP-A1HDCI, it is possible to use the DHCP and Auto IP
functions to make the network settings automatically.
• When using a broadband router (DHCP function), the AVP-A1HDCI
sets the IP address, etc., automatically.
When using the AVP-A1HDCI connected to a network with no
DHCP function, make the settings for the IP address, etc., at GUI
menu “Manual Setup” – “Network Setup” (
v
page 35 ~ 38).
• The AVP-A1HDCI is not compatible with PPPoE. A PPPoE-
compatible router is required if you have a contract for a line of the
type with which the PPPoE is set.
• Depending on the ISP with which you have your contract, it may
be necessary to make proxy server settings to use the Internet
radio function. If you made proxy server settings on the computer
to connect to the Internet, make the proxy server settings on the
AVP-A1HDCI in the same way.
Turn clockwise.
