Ethernet Connection
The Ethernet connection is used for configuration and
programming as well as for enabling control via the
MyRussound App or the XTSPlus Touchscreen. The default
network setting is DHCP-enabled, but the MBX-PRE can be
configured with a static IP address using the Web Config
software. The Ethernet connection is also used for the built-
in streaming services and for playing any music stored on
connected network drives using UPnP.

ETHERNET CONNECTION AND FACTORY RESET
Factory Reset
The factory reset button has three functions. A 1-second
press will initiate a device reboot. A 3-second press and hold
will restore network settings to DHCP. A 10-second press
and hold will completely reset the MBX-PRE to its factory
default settings.
Note: Performing a factory reset will restore the unit to its
factory default settings and put MBX-PRE in Zone mode.
The unit will require valid Russound Certified Installer
credentials in order to be unlocked and configured again.
The factory reset will also delete all personal information
including service account settings and passwords.
