Setting Up Your ClearStream
Network Settings
To access files or internet based media over your network, you will need to connect
your ClearStream to a network and configure it.
The player supports the automatic acquisition of IP addresses from DHCP server
devices to make setting up your player easy. If you leave the network settings to
“AUTO”, the player will attempt to acquire the network settings from a DHCP server
within your local network or, if you wish, you can also enter the IP address manually.
The following options can be configured. For more information on some of the
settings see

A DHCP server is a server or device that is designed to make TCP/IP network configuration
easy. Most Broadband Internet routers act as DHCP servers on a local network. Consult your
routers manual if you are unsure if it supports this function, and for instructions on how to set
it up.
