interfere with each other. It is even possible that there is no reception any more just two rooms
away. If necessary, install a repeater to extend the WiFi network range.
Combined wireless with 2.4 and 5 GHz
Older wireless devices are not able to work in the 2.4 and 5 GHz ranges at the same time. This
applies not only to routers and access points, but also to PCs, laptops and other devices you may
wish to use to control your multi-room system. If you cannot find or control your multi-room products
or the connection is too slow, check that they really support both frequency ranges.
Router overnight standby function
If your router has an overnight standby function, it is possible that the sound bar will switch on
automatically (but not automatically play music) when you switch the router back on again. In this
case, the sound bar obviously consume electricity. If necessary, deactivate the overnight standby
function.
Allow network discovery
Make sure that the wireless router or access point allows devices in the wireless network to be
visible to one another and exchange data with one another. Otherwise, the sound bar is no longer
visible after they have been set up.
Network glossary
Access Point
Device which provides an access hub between a wireless (
WiFi
) network and
a cabled one (
LAN
). It gives wireless-compatible devices (laptops,
smartphones, loud-speakers, etc. with wireless functionality) access to the LAN
and any other networks connected (e.g. the internet).
AP mode
Operating mode in which a multi-room device can be connected and
configured via the wireless network (WiFi) using the Smart-Audio App or
another compatible app.
Bluetooth
Industrial standard for wireless communication between devices. The range for
this system is normally max. 10 m. After an initial synchronisation (
pairing
)
between two devices, the wireless connection between them is automatically
restored when the two devices are switched on and within range at a later
date.
DHCP
Abbreviation for “Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol”. Computer networks
can contain large numbers of computers. Each computer is given a unique
IP
address
to ensure the data intended for it is only sent to it. There is the option
either of assigning IP addresses yourself (these are then fixed) or leaving this
to a device within the network (normally the
router
). And this is what the DHCP
function does: after a computer is switched on, it is automatically assigned a
free IP address which is valid until it is switched off again.
