Preparing the internet connection
You can integrate this radio into a local network and
even access home servers or other authorised resources.
To receive internet radio or access non-local media
(streaming, such as Spotify Connect), the network must be

WLAN connection. That´s why it´s recommended to use
a wired connection between access point (AP) and radio
to ensure an undisturbed reception.
