What you need to know about setting up the network
Make sure that the smartphone and/or tablet with which you wish to register and operate your
smart audio device in the network belongs to the relevant network.
To prevent unauthorised persons gaining access to the system, the WiFi network should be
encrypted. There are numerous encryption algorithms, including WPS, WPA, WEP, etc. Make sure
you use the same encryption algorithm for your multi-room product as for your wireless network.
Otherwise, no connection can be established to the wireless network.
In large apartments or buildings with several storeys, a number of different wireless networks can
be installed. Make sure that the network equipment (routers/repeaters) are connected to one
another, otherwise your smart audio devices cannot communicate with one another and you will
not be able to control them as expected.
Some smart audio devices also have a LAN connection socket which allows the device to be
connected to the network via a network cable.
If you connect your sound bar to your network using a cable, make sure that the network cable for
the relevant device is connected to the same network (WiFi) as your smartphone and/or tablet and
any other smart audio devices.
In buildings with fixed network sockets in the walls, these sockets can often lead to different
networks.
If this cannot be guaranteed, the devices cannot be controlled.

WPS
Most wireless routers and access points have a WPS button. Press this button and then the WPS
button on your multi-room device for the multi-room device to establish a connection with your
wireless network. Make sure that the device you wish to use to control your multi-room products
(e.g. smartphone or tablet) is also connected to the same wireless network (i.e. router or access
point).
Dynamic/static IP addresses
By default, your multi-room device expects to be automatically assigned an IP address by your
wireless router or access point when it connects to it (DHCP function activated). However, if you use
static IP addresses for your network devices, this will not work. In this case, you need to manually
assign your multi-room device an available IP address. See the operating instructions for your
router.
Wireless range
Wireless routers normally work in the 2.4 GHz range, but this is also used by other RF devices (not
only wireless networks). This can reduce speeds and ranges as the numerous wireless signals
