A wireless broadband router is connected to the internet successfully. The radio
supports Wireless B, G and N connection (Wireless N router can also be used with
the setting on B or G).
You know the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
data encryption code/password. You need to key in the correct code when the radio
is connected to the wireless router for network connection. If you do not know the
code/password, please contact the person /technician who set up the
router/network for you.
The radio can work via Wireless network connection (Wi-Fi connection) and Wired
connection (Ethernet RJ45).

immediately if water or liquids is spilled into the radio. Consult with the shop you
bought this radio for any question.
Avoid using or storing the unit in dusty or sandy environment.
Do not open and repair the radio by yourself.

Ethernet to a Wifi router, which connects to an Adsl modem or a cable modem
provided by your ISP.
Wired LAN (Ethernet)
For Wired Ethernet connection to a router with DHCP enabled, the network
configuration for Internet connection is automatically done and the Tuner can be
used for Internet radio and UPnP sharing without user interaction. When the
