Getting Started

Step 3: Connecting to

the Network

Connecting the system to the Internet allows you

to watch Internet video, listen to Internet audio,

use BD-LIVE, and update the Home Theatre

System software.

Use a LAN cable to connect to the LAN (100)

terminal on the unit.

Tip

• Using a shielded LAN cable, straight or crossing, is

recommended.

To set the network settings

Select [Network Settings], [Internet Settings],

then [Wired Setup] (page 54), and follow the on-

screen instructions to complete the setup.

Use a wireless LAN via the USB Wireless LAN

Adapter (Sony UWA-BR100 only).

Turn off the unit before connecting the

extension cable or inserting the USB Wireless

LAN Adapter. After inserting the USB Wireless

LAN Adapter to the base of the extension cable

and connecting the extension cable to the

(USB) port (left or right), turn on the unit again.

Note

• The placement distance between the USB Wireless

LAN Adapter and your wireless LAN router differs

depending on the usage environment. If the system

cannot connect to the network or the network

connection is unstable, move the USB Wireless LAN

Adapter to a different position or place the USB

Wireless LAN Adapter and the wireless LAN router

closer to each other.

To set the network settings

Select [Network Settings], [Internet Settings],

then [USB Wireless Setup] (page 54), and

follow the on-screen instructions to complete

the setup.

About wireless LAN security

Since communication via the wireless LAN

function is established by radio waves, the

wireless signal may be susceptible to

interception. To protect wireless

communication, this system supports various

security functions. Be sure to correctly

configure the security settings in accordance

with your network environment.

No Security

Although you can easily make settings, anyone

can intercept wireless communication or intrude

into your wireless network, even without any

sophisticated tools. Keep in mind that there is a

risk of unauthorized access or interception of

data.
