There are several methods to connect the unit to a network. Select a connection method according to your environment.
Note
• Some security software installed on your PC or the firewall settings of network devices (such as a router) may block the access of the
unit to the network devices or the Internet. In these cases, configure the security software or firewall settings appropriately.
• Each server must be connected to the same subnet as the unit.
• To use the service via the Internet, broadband connection is strongly recommended.
• When playing a high-resolution audio source via the network, we recommend connecting with a wired router for stable playback.

If you turn on the power to the unit right after you purchase or
initialize it, the unit will automatically use the network settings of the
iOS device (iPhone/iPad/iPod touch) and try to connect to a wireless
LAN (unless the unit is already connected to a wired LAN).
If you have an iOS device, follow the procedure from Step 6 in “Sharing the iOS device setting” (p. 16).
