4 Connecting a network cable or preparing the wireless antenna Connect the unit to a router (access point) with a network cable, or prepare the wireless antenna for establishing a wireless network connection. You can enjoy Internet radio or music files stored on media servers, such as PCs and Network Attached Storage (NAS), on the unit. Connecting the network cable Connect the unit to your router with a commercially-available STP network cable (CAT-5 or higher straight cable). Internet Network Attached Storage (NAS) WAN Y • Some security software installed on your PC or the firewall settings of network devices (such as a router) may block the access of the unit to the network devices or the Internet. In these cases, configure the security software or firewall settings appropriately. • Each server must be connected to the same subnet as the unit. • To use the service via the Internet, broadband connection is strongly recommended. Preparing the wireless antenna If you want to establish a wireless network connection, stand the wireless antenna up straight. For information on how to connect the unit to a network device wirelessly, see "Connecting to a network device wirelessly" (p.46).

You only need to configure the network settings if your router does not support DHCP or if you want to configure the network parameters manually (p.115). • You can check whether the network parameters (such as IP address) are properly assigned to the unit in "Network" (p.124) in the "Information" menu. Y Do not apply excessive force on the antenna. Doing so may damage it. En 35
