Device that connects to the broadband circuit and conducts

A type that is integrated with a router is also available.

n Router

When using this unit, we recommend you use a router equipped
with the following functions:
• Built-in DHCP server

This function automatically assigns IP addresses on the LAN.

• Built-in 100BASE-TX switch

When connecting multiple devices, we recommend a switching
hub with a speed of 100 Mbps or greater.

• When using with a wireless LAN, prepare a broadband router

with built-in access point.

n Ethernet cable (CAT-5 or greater recommended)

• Use only shielded STP or ScTP LAN cable which is available at

retailer.

• Some fl at type Ethernet cables are easily affected by noise.

We recommend using a normal type cable.

• If you have an Internet provider contract for a line on which network

settings are made manually, make the settings at “Network
connecting (DHCP=Off)” (vpage 30).

• With this unit, it is possible to use the DHCP and Auto IP functions

to make the network settings automatically.

• When using this unit with the broadband router’s DHCP function

enabled, this unit automatically performs the IP address setting and
other settings.
When using this unit connected to a network with no DHCP function,
make the settings for the IP address, etc., at “Network connecting
(DHCP=Off)” (vpage 30).

• When setting manually, check the setting contents with the network

administrator.

NOTE

• A contract with an ISP is required to connect to the Internet.

No additional contract is needed if you already have a broadband
connection to the Internet.

• The types of routers that can be used depend on the ISP. Contact an

ISP or a computer shop for details.

DENON assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any
communication errors or troubles resulting from customer’s network
environment or connected devices.

• This unit is not compatible with PPPoE. A PPPoE-compatible router

is required if you have a contract for a type of line set by PPPoE.

• Do not connect an ETHERNET connector directly to the LAN port/

Ethernet connector on your computer.
