Before You Can Use This Product - Roberts iStream 3 Manual

Before you can use this product

We recommend before using your smart radio for the first time, to check for software updates.
Details on updating your smart radio can be found on page 65.
You will first need to connect your radio to your WiFi network see Configuration, page 11 onwards.
Before you can use your radio, you must have the following:
● A broadband Internet connection (not required for DAB, FM or Music Player functions).
● A router (or equivalent wireless access point) providing a WiFi signal, connected to your broadband Internet
Service Provider. The broadband modem, router and wireless access point will often be a single combined
unit supplied by your Internet Service Provider or bought from a computer store.
● A Smart phone or tablet which uses either the Android operating system (version 4.0.3 or later) or Apple iOS
(version 9 or later).
● If your wireless network requires a security password to allow connection, then you either need to know the
WEP, WPA or WPA2 key used for encryption so that you can get the radio to communicate with the network,
or your router needs to offer WiFi Protected Setup (WPS).
The radio's WiFi system is compatible with 802.11b, g, n or a networks and can use 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz WiFi
frequency bands.
The radio will typically work within a 10-20 metre radius from your wireless access point. The actual range achieved
will depend upon the building type, other nearby wireless networks, and possible interference sources. DAB and
FM radio functions can operate wherever the radio is able to receive a suitable broadcast signal.
IMPORTANT: Before you continue, make sure that your router (or access point) is powered up and working with
your broadband Internet service (use your computer, smart-phone or tablet to verify this). To get this part of the
system working you must refer to the instructions supplied with those items.
