If there are other port numbers you

want to change, repeat steps 2 and 3.

Note

!

When the wireless LAN converter (AS-WL300)

is connected, the port number cannot be set

to port 3.

!

We recommend setting the port number to 23

or within the range of 49152 to 65535.

!

When the port number is changed, network

communications between the receiver and

AVNavigator are no longer possible. In this

case, click

Settings

on the AVNavigator’s

function menu, select the IP Address tab

and input one of the port numbers set on the

receiver side to enable communications with

AVNavigator.

Wireless LAN Converter

This setting is required for connecting a wire-

less LAN converter to the receiver and using

wireless network functions.

For the wireless LAN converter, use the sepa-

rately sold AS-WL300.

Access Point Setting

Make the connection settings for the wireless

LAN converter connected to the receiver and

the access point. Connect the wireless LAN

converter to the receiver and set DHCP on the

“

IP Address, Proxy

” settings menu beforehand

(page 67). There are four way to make the set-

tings for connecting to the access point, as

shown below.

!

WPS (PBC)

– Connection settings are made

automatically simply by pressing the WPS

buttons on the access point and wireless LAN

converter, following the instructions displayed

on the receiver’s screen. This is the simplest

way of making the settings, and is possible

when the access point and wireless LAN

converter are equipped with WPS buttons.

Network connection settings require

approximately 2 minutes from the time the

WPS buttons are pressed. Wait until the

settings are completed.

!

WPS (PIN)

– Display a list of the SSIDs of

connectable access points and select the

access point to which you want to connect

from this list. Connection settings are made by

inputting the 8-digit PIN code displayed on the

receiver’s screen to the access point to which

you want to connect.

!

Search for Access Point

– Display a list of

the SSIDs of connectable access points and

select the access point to which you want to

connect from this list. Connection settings

with the access point are made by setting the

access point’s security protocol, security key

and WEP default key (only when the access

point’s security protocol is WEP).

!

Manual Setting

– Connection settings are

made by manually inputting the SSID, security

protocol, security key and WEP default key

of the access point to which you want to

connect.

Note

!

If there is a “; ” (semicolon) in the access

point’s SSID or security key, wireless LAN

connection will not be possible even after

the wireless LAN converter settings are

completed. Change the setting of the access

point’s SSID or security key to a character

string that does not include a “; ” (semicolon).

WLAN IP Address

If the IP address of a device connected in the

LAN other than the wireless LAN converter

is set to “192.168.XXX.249”, the IP address of

the wireless LAN converter will be redundant,

making connection to the access point impos-

sible. In this case, use this setting to set an IP

address specific to the wireless LAN converter.

Enter the port number of your proxy

server.

Network Standby

This setting allows the AVNavigator or iContro-

lAV2 function for operating the receiver from a

computer connected on the same LAN as the

receiver to be used even when the receiver is in

the standby mode.

1

Select ‘Network Standby’ from the

Network Setup menu.

Specify whether the Network Standby

is ON or OFF.

!

ON

– The AVNavigator or iControlAV2

function can be used even when the receiver
