1 If there is no networking cable plugged into the set at the first
setup, you will be asked whether you want to use wired
(Ethernet) or wireless (WiFi) operation. Choose Wireless.
For any further connection, the set will start up in the operation
mode last used. This setting can be changed at any later point in
time in the ‘SET OPTIONS’ menu under ‘SELECT NETWORK’.
2 You will be asked to choose between ‘Infrastructure’ or ‘Ad-hoc’
operation mode. If you want to use a wireless access point
(Infrastructure mode - recommended), select accordingly. If you
select “NO”, MC-i250 will try to establish a direct connection to a
wireless network adapter (Ad-hoc mode).
3 You will be asked to enter the network name (ESSID). Enter this
case-sensitive name, using the remote control.
4 You will be asked to select the network channel number. If you
use an access point (infrastructure mode), choose the used
channel or type in “0” for automatic detection. This process will
take a short while. If you do not use a wireless access point
(Ad-hoc mode), use the soft keys to select the used channel.
5 You can choose to use WEP encryption. If you choose ‘YES’,
you will be asked to enter up to four encryption keys. The first key
will be used as the outgoing key. The outgoing key can be defined
at any later point in time in the ‘SET OPTIONS’ menu under
ENCRYPT CONFIG’.
Notes:
You can use ASCII or HEX encryption keys, but all have to be
the same length.
When the wireless connection is established, you still might
have to configure the network settings (please see network
settings of wired operation).

The Streamium MC-i250’s network settings are by default set to
DHCP’ (dynamic IP addressing) and ‘NO PROXY’. When your
router is configured as a DHCP server and your ISP does not use
a proxy, the set should automatically establish a connection to the
Internet.
As soon as you are asked to enter your email address on the
screen, your set has successfully established a connection to the
Internet. To activate the online features of MC-i250, you
still have to complete the registration (see first page).
For Static IP addressing, enter the following information:
IP address _ _ _._ _ _._ _ _._ _ _

subnet mask _ _ _._ _ _._ _ _._ _ _
DNS 1 _ _ _._ _ _._ _ _._ _ _
DNS 2 _ _ _._ _ _._ _ _._ _ _
Example: to enter the IP address 164.23.5.114, use the
remote control to key in :
164.023.005.114
If your ISP uses a proxy server, you will have to enter the
proxy name and proxy port.
