Some are integrated with the router. n Router • When using the AVP-A1HDCI, we recommend you use a router equipped with the following functions: · Built-in DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server This function automatically assigns IP addresses on the LAN. · Built-in 100BASE-TX switch When connecting multiple devices, we recommend a switching hub with a speed of 100 Mbps or greater. • When using with a wireless LAN, prepare a broadband router with built-in access point. n Ethernet cable (CAT-5 or greater recommended) Use for wired LAN. • The AVP-A1HDCI does not come with an Ethernet cable. • Some flat type Ethernet cables are easily affected by noise. We recommend using a normal type cable. • If the sound is broken in an environment in which there is much power supply noise from electric products or in a noisy network environment, use a shielded type Ethernet cable. n Computer A computer with the following specifications is required to use a media server: • OS Windows® XP Service Pack2, Windows Vista • Software (Prepare one of the following.) · .NET Framework 1.1 and Windows Media Connect (Windows XP) · Windows Media Player ver.11 · DLNA-compatible server software • Internet browser Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 or later • LAN port • 300 MB or more free disk space b Free disk space is required to store music and video files. The following sizes are approximate. Format MP3 / WMA MPEG-4 AAC WAV (LPCM) FLAC Bit rate 128 kbps 192 kbps 256 kbps 392 kbps 1400 kbps 1080 kbps Per minute Approx. 1 MB Approx. 1.5 MB Approx. 2 MB Approx. 3 MB Approx. 10 MB Approx. 7.7 MB Per hour Approx. 60 MB Approx. 90 MB Approx. 120 MB Approx. 180 MB Approx. 600MB Approx. 464 MB For connections to the Internet, contact an ISP (Internet Service Provider) or a computer shop. NOTE • A contract with an ISP is required to connect to the Internet. No additional contract is needed if you already have a broadband connection to the Internet. • The types of routers that can be used depend on the ISP. Contact an ISP or a computer shop for details. • Depending on the server, video files may be displayed, but they cannot be played on the AVP-A1HDCI. n 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" (vpage 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" (vpage 35 ~ 38). • The AVP-A1HDCI is not compatible with PPPoE. A PPPoEcompatible 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. 21
