<Network Config>
This menu enables you to configure your radio's network settings, scan again for a connection to another
wireless network, or to manually configure the network parameters. This is useful if you take your Internet
radio to another building where you want to use it.

Configuring the radio to use a static IP address

In order for your radio to use a static IP address on your network, you will need to do the following:
1. From your radio, select the 'Settings > Network config > Edit Config' menu and then press
SELECT.
2. The radio will now display 'Auto (DHCP)? YES / NO'. Turn the radio's rotary encoder to select
'NO' and then press SELECT.
3. You will now be able to enter the IP address you wish to give your radio by using the rotary
encoder to select the desired numbers followed by pressing SELECT to end inputting the address.
4. The radio will now prompt you to enter the required network mask for the network. You will be
able to enter this in the same way as before for entering the IP address.
5. You will now need to enter the default gateway's IP address used by the radio on the network.
6. Finally, you will need to enter the DNS IP address for the radio. On some networks, you may need
to enter your ISP's DNS IP address, which should be available on your ISP's support page on their
website.
7. After entering the above information, the radio will now connect successfully to your network. In
order to make the radio use DHCP again (to automatically get its network information when it
attempts to connect to a network), you will need to select 'Configure > Network config > Edit
Config' and then set 'Auto (DHCP)? YES / NO' to 'YES'.
If your radio supports wired networking then you will be able to configure your radio to connect to your
network via an available Ethernet connection (RJ45) or via a Wi-Fi router:

Configuring the radio to only use a wired Ethernet connection

From the radio's 'Network config' menu, select 'Wired/Wireless'. This menu will present you with three
options: 'Wireless Only', 'Wired' and 'Auto'. Selecting 'Wired Only' will allow cause the radio to reboot
and then only use its Ethernet connection to communicate with the network. The radio will also disable its
wireless network capabilities.

Configuring the radio to only use a Wi-Fi connection

Selecting the 'Wireless Only' option from the 'Wired/Wireless' menu will allow cause the radio to reboot
and then only use its Wi-Fi connection to communicate with the network. The radio will also disable its
Ethernet connection.
Configuring the radio to use either an Ethernet or a wireless
connection
Selecting the 'Auto' option from the 'Wired/Wireless' menu will allow cause the radio to reboot and then
attempt to establish an Ethernet connection, if it is available, to communicate with the network. Otherwise,
the radio will attempt to establish a Wi-Fi connection to the network.
Once the radio has established a certain type of connection to the network, then this type of connection will
remain in use while the radio is on.
