*1To listen to music services, you need an environment

that allows you to access the Internet.

You must have the following environment to use the Home Network, Music Services, and PARTY STREAMING functions. Confirm your environment in advance.

❏ A wireless LAN home network

environment must be available. (Make sure that a wireless LAN router is used.)

❏ A device that can be used as a server (a

computer, etc.) must be connected to your wireless LAN home network.*

❏ Internet access must be available.

(When you want to listen to music services or use an NTP server to set the clock.)

*2For details on servers which are compatible with this

unit, see page 38.

There are several connection methods you can use to set up a wireless network: searching for an access point, using a WPS connecting method (either the push button configuration method or the PIN code method), or manual setting. Select the connection method that can be used for your home network using the chart on page 25.

Notes

• Make sure not to use the wireless LAN function in a

place where medical equipment (such as a pacemaker) is used or the use of wireless communication is prohibited.

• Before connecting to your home network, you need to

prepare a wireless LAN router/access point. For details, refer to the operating manual of the device.

• Depending on your home network environment, the

wireless LAN router/access point may have been set up such that it cannot be connected using WPS, even though it is compatible with WPS. For details on whether your wireless LAN router/access point is compatible or not compatible with WPS, and on the setup of a WPS connection, refer to the operating manual of your wireless LAN router/access point.

• You may encounter setup difficulties if the unit and the

wireless LAN router/access point are located too far from each other. If you do, move the devices closer to each other.

Searching for an access point and setting up a wireless network (access point scan method)

You can set up a wireless network by searching for the access point. Confirm you have the following information in advance, as you will need it to set up the network with this connection method.

❏ The network name (SSID*

identifies your network.* needed in step 6.)

❏ If your wireless home network is

secured by encryption, the security key (WEP key, WPA/WPA2 key) for your network.* step 7.)

*1SSID (Service Set IDentifier) is a name that identifies a

particular access point.
