Wireless range
Wireless routers normally work in the 2.4 GHz range, but this is also used by other RF devices (not
only wireless networks). This can reduce speeds and ranges as the numerous wireless signals
interfere with each other. It is even possible that there is no reception any more just two rooms
away. The best solution is to use multiple aerials or routers/access points which support the
standard 802.11n in order to combine the channels available. If necessary, install a repeater to
extend the WiFi network range.
Combined wireless with 2.4 and 5 GHz
Older wireless devices are not able to work in the 2.4 and 5 GHz ranges at the same time. This
applies not only to routers and access points, but also to PCs, laptops and other devices you may
wish to use to control your Multiroom system. If you cannot find or control your Multiroom products
or the connection is too slow, check that they really support both frequency ranges.
Router overnight standby function
If your router has an overnight standby function, it is possible that the speakers will switch on
automatically (but not automatically play music) when you switch the router back on again. In this
case, the speakers obviously consume electricity. If necessary, deactivate the overnight standby
function.
Allow network discovery
Make sure that the wireless router or access point allows devices in the wireless network to be
visible to one another and exchange data with one another. Otherwise, the speakers are no longer
visible after they have been set up.
