Media Player and DTV Receiver
Question 9:
I configured everything correctly, but still cannot get the wireless network or UPnP function to work.
answer:
Are you using a firewall such as Norton Internet Security, McAfee Personal Firewall, Zone Alarm, etc. or even the built-in
firewall of Windows XP? (Don't forget that Service Pack 2 for Windows XP automatically upgrades your firewall and turn it
on by default)
If you have a firewall, it may need to be configured or have exceptions created to allow you to see and communicate with
the player on the network. To test if your firewall is preventing network communication (including PING and access shared
folders), try disabling it to see if you can connect. If you can connect with the firewall disabled, you may need to add the
player to the 'Trusted' list or configure the firewall for local intranet access. Worst-case, disable your firewall long enough
to use the player, then enable it again when done.
Question 10:
I am using the 802.11n Wi-Fi dongle with an 802.11n wireless router, why the speed is still 802.11g 54Mbps rather than
300Mbps?
answer:
The IEEE 802.11n Draft standard prohibits using high throughput with WEP or TKIP as the unicast cipher. If you use these
encryption methods (e.g. WEP, WPA-TKIP), your data rate will drop to 54 Mbps. You may contact the Access Point or router
manufacturer to download the latest firmware, or try other encryption methods (WPA2-AES or WPA2-TKIP), or choose to
configure an unsecured profile, but this option is not recommended.
Question 11:
Where can I find .torrent files for BitTorrent download?
answer:
A lot of torrent sites can be found on the Internet, such as The Pirate Bay, Isohunt.com, TorrentPortal.com, Mininova.org,
etc. Please take care of the contents you're downloading and their usage, which might cause copyright infringements and
violate the local laws.
