Connecting To Your Computer Network - Roberts Stream93i User Manual

Connecting to your computer network

Before you can use your Stream 93i sound system to listen to Internet radio or to music streamed from your
computer, it must fi rst be connected to your computer network.
This section of this book describes how to connect the sound system to your network using either the wireless
(WiFi) connection or the wired (Ethernet) connection.
The following instructions assume that you have just set up the clock and time options using the Setup Wizard
as described on the preceding page.
These instructions also apply to the Network Wizard in the Network Settings menu (from step 2 onwards).
1. After setting the Daylight Savings options (see page 10), the display will show the 'Keep network connected?'
option. You should choose 'Yes' if you wish to keep the sound system connected to the network when it is in
Standby mode. This will allow remote control software to switch on your sound system when needed.
If you choose 'No' then your sound system will shut down its WiFi connection when it is in Standby, DAB,
FM or Aux-in modes. This minimises power consumption but it does mean that you will need to switch the
sound system on manually in order to use either Spotify Connect, the 'Play to' function or any remote control
software such as ConnectR app.
Rotate the Tuning/Select control to highlight the required option and then press the control to make the
selection.
After setting the Keep Connected option, the display will show a list of supported WiFi regional options.
Rotate the Tuning/Select control to highlight the required region (for the UK choose 'Most of Europe'), and
then press the control to make the selection. Do this even if you are planning to use the wired Ethernet
connection. Your sound system will then scan for available WiFi networks.
2. The sound system will enter the Network Settings Wizard and will display 'Scanning...'. The sound system will
automatically scan the 2.4GHz WiFi band and after a short while the display will show a list of the available
WiFi networks. If you are intending to use the WiFi connection, go to step 3 on the next page.
To use the Ethernet connection to your router (with automatic confi guration), rotate the Tuning/Select control
to point to the '[Wired]' menu item. Press the control and the sound system will attempt to connect.
If your network allows automatic confi guration (which is normal) the sound system will acquire a network
address. The screen should say 'Connecting...', and then 'Setup wizard completed'. Press the Tuning/Select
control to exit the setup wizard and show the Main menu. You can then skip to paragraph 10 on page 14.
