Steps For Connecting Your Radio To Your Wireless Network
First, connect to the AC Power. The radio can be switched on or o with the STANDBY/ON button.
The display on the front of the radio will light up and indicate:
Step 1 - Power up the radio

After a few seconds, this will change to show:

Steps For Connecting Your Radio To Your Wireless Network (Continued)
No networks
Found
If this happens then you will have to setup your wireless access point - see the instructions supplied with your wireless router / access point.
When the radio nds your wireless network, it displays the ESSID for the access point on the screen - this is a name that is allocated to the access point by the person who set up your network - for example:
< My Home Network >
It is possible, and in some locations highly likely, that your radio will nd more than one wireless access point, in which case you can choose which one you want to connect to. Turn the knob on the radio to see the ESSID for each access point the radio has found.
For optimal performance you may want to check your home network settings to make sure your radio is on a deferent channel than your neighbors. To do this please consult your Wi-Fi router owners manual.
When the ESSID for the access point you want to connect to is displayed on the screen, press the ‘Select’ button.
If your network is not congured to need an encryption code, the screen should say:

11
BRAVADO-X Internet Radio and Network Media Player
Steps For Connecting Your Radio To Your Wireless Network (Continued)
If the screen displays either:
Enter WEP key
Or:
Enter WPA key
Then your network is using one of the encryption systems: Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). You therefore need to enter the correct WEP or WPA code into the radio to get it to communicate with your network.
Only the person who set up the network in the rst place knows this code; if that person is not you then you need to nd out what the password / security code is.
After 3 seconds, the display goes into the code entry mode. To enter the code, use the knob to select each character of the code in turn, pressing the ‘Select’ button inwards after each character. Note that WEP and WPA codes are sensitive to upper and lower case characters so you must enter them exactly.
Use the ’Back’ button to erase incorrect characters.
After the nal character, use the knob to select the END character and press the ‘Select’ button.
The radio should now be able to connect to the network. Your password will be saved in your Grace radio even if a power outage occurs.
If the display shows “Invalid key” or “Network Error”, an incorrect password has probably been entered.
Then:
Network OK

TROUBLESHOOTING
If you experience any trouble with your wireless Internet radio, then you may nd it useful to visit the help section on: webpage: http://www.gracesupport.com/
If you have trouble connecting the radio to your wireless network, these steps may help to resolve the problem:
1. Conrm that a Wi-Fi connected PC can access the Internet (i.e. can browse the web) using the same network.
2. Check that a DHCP server is available, or that you have congured a static IP address on the radio. To congure the DHCP, you must read the instructions supplied with the wireless access point.
3. Check that your rewall is not blocking any outgoing ports. As a minimum the radio needs access to UDP and TCP ports 80, 554, 1755, 5000 and 7070. To congure the Access Port Control, you must read the instructions supplied with the wireless access point.
4. Check your access point does not restrict connections to particular MAC addresses. You can view the radio’s MAC address using the menu item Congure > Network Cong > View Cong > MAC address.
5. If you have an encrypted network, check that you have entered the correct key or passphrase into the radio. Remember that text-format keys are case sensitive.
If your radio can connect to the network successfully, but is unable to play particular stations, it may be due to one of the following causes:
1. The station is not broadcasting at this time of the day (remember it may be located in a dierent time zone).
2. The station has reached the maximum allowed number of simultaneous listeners.
3. The station is not broadcasting anymore.
4. The link on the radio station is out of date.
5. The Internet connection between the server (often located in a dierent country) and you is slow.
Try using a PC to play back the stream via the broadcaster’s web site.
If NO audio from your speakers or NO power: be sure the power switch on the back to the unit is turned ON; Using the selection switch on the back of the unit for internal or external speaker source, be sure the desired selection is made appropriately. If using external speakers, be sure speaker wires and connections are securely and properly completed.
