There, you will be asked to enter the Media Access
Controller (MAC) address which is the unique ID of
your Receiver. This MAC address can be found in the
network section of the setup menu.
Once you have entered the MAC address, you can then
browse stations and podcasts and set up groups of
favourite stations. When you next connect your Receiver
to the internet, these groups will appear in the 'My
favourites' folder.
