(See Connect to Your Home Network, on page 15.) We recommend that you connect the AVR directly to a home-network router so that it can directly access the Internet for Internet radio and access other devices on the network for playback of shared content (see Listening to Media on Your Home Network, on page 21, for more information). If your network uses an automatic IP address, you should not have to perform any network setup procedures. Once you connect the AVR to your home network, the network should automatically assign the AVR an IP address, and the AVR should automatically connect to your network. If your AVR does not automatically connect to your network (in which case the AVR will display a "Not Connected" message when you press the Network source button): 1.

The AVR will enter the Standby mode. When you turn the AVR back on, it will attempt to connect to the network. 4. If the AVR again fails to connect to the network, you may need to enter your network's settings manually. In this case, you must obtain these settings from your ISP or network administrator. After obtaining your network's settings: a) Select IP Address and use the Left or Right button to change the setting to "Manual." The following settings will become active: IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, Primary DNS and Secondary DNS. b) Use the Number buttons to make the entries for all of these settings.

Set Up the Network
To play MP3 or WMA media located on DLNA-compatible devices connected to the
network, to use the AVR’s internal Internet radio tuner (vTuner) to listen to audio streams
or to stream audio to the AVR via AirPlay, connect the AVR’s Network connector to the
Ethernet port on a router or modem that has Internet access, to a home network, or to a
PC. (See
Connect to Your Home Network,
on page 15.)
We recommend that you connect the AVR directly to a home-network router so that it can
directly access the Internet for Internet radio and access other devices on the network
for playback of shared content (see

If your network uses an automatic IP address, you should not have to perform any
