The menu item Receiver Settings offers a series of useful options to configure your MP 6.2
(Network settings, Software Updates, Quick Start Function, Time etc.).
4.9.1 Network
By selecting the menu item Network Status you get access to a number of current
information on an established network connection such as Connection Type, IP Adress,
Subnet Mask, Gateway IP.

on an established wireless connection such as Signal Quality, WiFi channel, and Encryption
type.
By selecting the menu item MAC-Adress, the current MAC Adrress of your MP 6.2 is being
displayed. This name is used as a reference for other computers located in the same network
(UPnP).
The menu item IP Settings offers you the choice between an automatically assigned IP
address (Automatic (DHCP)) or a manual IP address (Manual input). Unless you are an
expert with a good understanding of local network protocols, we strongly recommend to
choose the Automatic (DHCP) option. When in doubt, please consult your local dealer who
can help you to set up your network configuration.
The menu item Wlan Settings provides a list of all available wireless networks (SSIDs) which
can be accessed with the navigation keys (11) and selected by pressing the Enter key (10).
After entering the password and selecting an IP configuration mode (Automatic (DHCP) or
Manual input) your MP 6.2 is connected to the selected WiFi network.
The selection of the menu item Network restart both resets all network options and restarts
the streaming module of your MP 6.2 which can take up to approximately 30 seconds.
NOTE: When changing from LAN to WLAN or vice-versa an internal restart of the included
streaming module is mandatory. Please make sure to keep the MP 6.2 switched-on and don't
disconnect the unit from the mains during the restart.
NOTE: By activating the Quick Start function of the unit, the network processor of your MP
6.2 is permanently activated which leads to faster start up times of the streaming
functionalities such as Airable or Music Server. Please note that an activation of the Quick
Start function also leads to a slightly higher power consumption.
