Problem
Solution
I get interference on my
wireless (Wi-Fi) link between
the Center and Station/PC.
The WAC3500 operates in the
2.4GHz radio frequency spectrum.
Many other household / IT devices
also operate in this frequency
spectrum, for example: microwave
ovens, DECT phones, Bluetooth
devices such as headphones,
computer mouses, wireless routers,
cordless phones,Wi-Fi compatible
printers, PDAs.
These devices can interfere with the
Wi-Fi link between the Center and
your PC, resulting in interference
such as pause during playback, slow
response to your operation, etc.The
severity of interference varies
depending on the extent of
radiation from the device and the
strength of Wi-Fi signals in that
position.
If you are playing the set, stop playback and take the
appropriate measures as follows:
• Keep the Center at least 3 meters away from such devices.
• Use the WEP/WPA/WPA2 key when connecting the
Center to an existing wireless PC network.To set WEP /
WPA / WPA2 key, connect Center to your PC using Philips
Wireless Audio Device Manager (WADM) in the by-packed
PC Suite CD. In the Device Configuration of WADM, enter
the Wireless Network submenu. In the Device Wireless
Authentication Type, select WEP or WPA / WPA2.
• Change the operating channel of the Center when
connecting it to an existing wireless PC network.To
change channels, connect the Center to your PC using
Philips Wireless Audio Device Manager (WADM) in the by-
packed PC Suite CD. In the Device Configuration of
WADM, enter the SSID of your Wireless Network and
select Ad-hoc mode. See Connect to your PC in this
manual and the WADM help file.
• If possible, change the operating channels of the other Wi-
Fi devices in your home.
• Turn the devices in different directions to minimize
interference.
I accidentally pulled the speaker
wires out of the clip.
Follow the illustrations below to reinsert the speaker wires
(gold wire to the hole marked '+' and silver wire to the
other hole).
Warning!
Never try to repair the system yourself as this will invalidate the warranty. Do not open the
system as there is a risk of electric shock.
If a fault occurs, first check the points listed below before taking the system for repair. If you are
unable to resolve a problem by following these hints, consult your dealer or Philips for help.
