Naim Audio NDS - Manual (Page 16)

14
Note: The wireless passphrase/access key is created when
the wireless router is first set up and could be a word or a
series of numbers and letters. If the passphrase/access key
is not known, check on the router settings page or with the
person who initially set up the router.
Note: If a router offers multiple security configurations, NDS
will automatically offer only the most secure one.
Note: If WEP security is used the router should be set to
“auto” or “open” authentication.
If the selected network is insecure
and requires no passphrase
or access key to join, NDS
will display an alert message.
Pressing the handset
ok/list key
will immediately connect NDS
to the network and display a
confirmation screen.
Note: Wireless connection difficulties can sometimes be
resolved by changing the wireless connection channel in
the router settings.
4.5.2 Non-DHCP (Static) Network
Connection
If DHCP is de-selected in the
Network Settings menu, five
further parameters will be
displayed.
Parameter Options
IP : User definable (numerical entry)
Default: 0.0.0.0
Mask: User definable (numerical entry)
Default: 0.0.0.0
Gateway (Gtwy): User definable (numerical entry)
Default: 0.0.0.0
DNS1: User definable (numerical entry)
Default: 0.0.0.0
DNS2: User definable (numerical entry)
Default: 0.0.0.0
These settings enable NDS to connect to a network using a
fixed IP address. On selecting each one in turn, numerical
entry screens will be displayed that require completion
with the appropriate network IP address settings. Consult
your network router’s user documentation for help with
specifying fixed IP address settings.
Network Settings 1/5
4 IP: 192.168.0.80
Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gtwy: 192.168.0.1
DNS1: 192.168.0.1
This wireless network is
insecure and requires no
passphrase or access key.

Setup
4.5.1 Wireless Network
Connection Set Up
If the Wireless parameter is
selected in the Network Settings
menu the Select Network menu
will display a list of the available
networks. An option not to use a wireless connection is
also provided. Use the handset
up ( 5 ) or down ( 6 ) keys
to scroll through the list and the ok/list key to select a
network.
Note: NDS is compatible with most commonly used Wi-Fi
standards. Routers that support 802.11b and 802.11g
will work, however those with 802.11n compatibility are
recommended for best results.
Note: As with any wireless network hardware, NDS
connection reliability will be affected by both network
router performance and Wi-Fi signal quality. To minimise
the possibility of poor connection reliability, NDS should be
connected to network audio sources by no more than one
wireless “leg”. Other “legs” necessary between NDS and
the network audio sources should be wired.
Note: NDS cannot connect to a “hidden” wireless network.
If the selected network is secure
and requires a passphrase or
access key to join, NDS will
display an alert message. Pressing
the handset
ok/list key will then
open a text entry screen for entry
of the passphrase or access key.
Use the handset numeric/text
keys to enter the passphrase or
access key taking care to ensure
that the letter case is correct.
Press the handset
ok/list key
when text entry is complete. In
the illustration the passphrase is
“flatfish”.
If the network is successfully
joined NDS will display a
confirmation screen.
If an incorrect passphrase or
access key is entered NDS will
display an alert message.
Note: As a security measure, a
router may also require the NDS’s
MAC address to be entered
before allowing it to join the wireless network. This type
of security feature is known as ‘MAC address filtering’.
The NDS MAC address is shown in the ‘Factory settings >
System Status’ page.
