product.
• Check that the AV Receiver Network Standby is set to ON. (If Network
Standby is OFF, power supply to the DC OUT jack will turn OFF when the AV
Receiver is set to Standby.)
■ Cannot connect using WPS
• Only some devices are WPS compatible. If you are unable to connect using
WPS, configure the settings manually.
■ An error occurs when “ywa.setup” or “192.168.1.249” is input in the
address field of the web browser, or the login screen does not appear.
• Check the IP address settings (automatic or fixed setting) of the PC. If the
PC is set to fixed setting, change it to automatic.
• The IP address of this unit may have changed from its default setting. Refer
to “Resetting this unit” and reset this unit.
• If you are using any security software, turn it off temporarily. Refer to the
owner’s manual of the security software for information on how to turn it off.

there is an obstacle between them, try searching again in close proximity to
the base unit, in a location where there are no obstacles between the two
devices.
• The base unit may be set to refuse SSID Broadcast. Set the SSID, security
mode, and key by hand.
■ Unable to configure settings in “Wireless Site Survey” on the setup
screen
• Check the SSID. If the base unit SSID or password contain characters that
this unit cannot use, the password is greater than 30 characters long, or the
SSID is greater than 32 characters long, change them to settings that are
compatible with this unit.
• Check the base unit security mode, and set the same security mode on the
YWA-10 setup screen.
• The password you have entered may be incorrect. Check the password and
re-enter it.
• If multiple base units are registered, select the units to which you wish to
connect, and click [Connect].
■ Not connected to the Internet, or connected to the Internet, but
experiencing sound skipping.
• There may be a problem with your Internet environment. Without using this
unit, check whether your PC can connect to the Internet, as in Step 1.

and cables are connected correctly.
• If this unit is too far away from the base unit (wireless LAN router, etc.) or
there is an obstacle between them, try searching again in close proximity to
the base unit, in a location where there are no obstacles between the two
devices.
• If there is a microwave oven in the immediate area, electromagnetic waves
from the microwave oven may be interfering with the wireless transmissions.
Move further away from the microwave oven and try connecting again.
• The base unit may be restricting connections by MAC Address. Add the MAC
address written on the underside of this unit to the list of permitted
connections on the base unit.
• Turn on the power to this unit again.
• Turn on the power to the base unit (wireless LAN router, etc) again.
• Check the IP address settings (automatic or fixed setting) of the network
device to which this product is to be connected. If the network device is set to
fixed setting, change it to automatic.
• Check that the DHCP server function on the base unit is set to ON.
• Try removing and reinserting the LAN cable connecting this unit and the AV
Receiver.
• Connection is not possible if multiple YWA-10 units are in use, or if another
device is using the IP address “192.168.xxx.249”. Refer to “Changing the IP
address” and change to a unique IP address.
• If you are unable to connect even after performing the above procedure,
reset this unit. Refer to “Resetting this unit” for information on resetting.
