Before you can use this product
Before you can use your internet radio, you must have the following:
● A broadband Internet connection (not required for DAB, FM or Music
Player functions).
● A wireless access point (WiFi) connected to your broadband Internet
Service Provider, preferably via a router. In many cases the broadband
modem, router and wireless access point will be a single combined unit
supplied by your Internet Service Provider or bought from a computer
store.
● If your wireless network is configured to use Wired Equivalent Privacy
(WEP) or WiFi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) data encryption then you
either need to know the WEP, WPA or WPA2 key used for encryption
so that you can get the radio to communicate with the network, or your
router needs to offer WiFi Protected Setup (WPS).
The radio will typically work within a 10-20 metre radius from your wireless
access point. The actual range achieved will depend upon the building
type, other nearby wireless networks, and possible interference sources.
DAB and FM radio functions can operate wherever the radio is able to
receive a suitable broadcast signal.
IMPORTANT: Before you continue, make sure that your wireless access
point or router is powered up and working with your broadband Internet
service (use your computer to verify this). To get this part of the system
working you must read the instructions supplied with the wireless access
point or router.
