Connection ports
The antenna for wireless communication (WLAN) is on the back of the OPUS or MELODY, as
well as the port for a wired Ethernet connection.
•
The wireless connection is based on the 802.11g standard, this standard is backwards
compatible with 802.11b. The usual range of wireless signal channels are supported for you
to choose one that works best in your environment.
•
The wired connection is based on the Ethernet standard with speeds up to 1 Gigabit per
second.
The ports automatically adapt to the available bandwidth supplied by the router.
Network configuration
In general there are 2 connection levels, which are also displayed in the status bar for you to
check upon at any time:
•
Home network connection: Your OPUS and MELODY connect to the home network router
directly, and act as DHCP clients that follow the existing network settings. Settings on the
OPUS and MELODY, e.g. concerning security, must correspond to those of the existing
home network for communication to function properly. A successful connection will consist
of an IP address (IP address, subnet mask, router address), but depending on the router
and state this does not have to mean that the connection is currently open. You will see
a wireless icon showing signal strength, or alternatively an Ethernet icon to signify how you
are connected to your home network. This connection icon is colored orange if an IP
address is available.
