Network connection

Using a network provides the best
performance, because the attached devices
connect directly to the network and are not
subject to radio frequency interference.
Please refer to the documentation for your
network device for further instructions.
Connect the player's LAN port to the
corresponding port on your Modem or Router
using a commercially available LAN or Ethernet
cable (CAT5 or better with RJ45 connector).
In the example configuration for wired
connection below, this player would be able to
access content from either of the PCs.
NOTE
• When plugging or unplugging the LAN cable,
hold the plug portion of the cable. When
unplugging, do not pull on the LAN cable but
unplug while pressing down on the lock.
• Do not connect a modular phone cable to the
LAN port.
• Since there are various connection
configurations, please follow the specifications
of your telecommunication carrier or internet
service provider.
• If you want to access content from PCs or DLNA
servers, this unit must be connected to the same
local area network with them via a router.
