Note
The network connection is only required when streaming media files from a shared network folder
on the local network. It is not possible to access the data on the R2-3500 media player via network
connection and the R2-3500 is also not capable of browsing the World Wide Web. For PC users
running Microsoft Windows, an additional Transcode Server program is available, in order to
convert formats on the fly and support even more file formats.
In order to use the wireless network connection, an additional wireless LAN USB dongle
(802.11b/g) is required. This extra piece of hardware is not included in the standard package but is
available as an optional accessory. 3rd party USB dongles are not supported.
