Connections
6: Connecting to the
network
If you have an Internet connection, you can
connect this receiver to the Internet as well.
You can connect through a wireless or a wired
LAN connection.
The following system environment is required
to use the network function of the receiver.
A Broadband line connection
A Broadband line connection to the Internet is
required in order to listen to Sony
Entertainment Network (SEN) and to update
the software of the receiver.
Modem
This is the device that is connected to the
broadband line to communicate with the
Internet. Some of these devices are integrated
with the router.
Router
• Use a router compatible with 100 Mbps or
greater transmission speeds to enjoy content
on your home network.
• We recommend that you use a router
equipped with the built-in DHCP (Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol) server.
This function automatically assigns IP
addresses on the LAN.
• Use a wireless LAN router/access point if
you want to use a wireless LAN connection.
LAN cable (CAT5) (For a wired LAN
connection only)
• We recommend that you use this type of
cable for a wired LAN.
Some flat-type LAN cables are easily
affected by noise. We recommend that you
use normal-type cables.
• If the receiver is used in an environment in
which there is power supply noise from
electric products or in a noisy network
environment, use a shielded-type LAN
cable.
Server
A server is a device which delivers content
(music, photos, and videos) to a DLNA device
on a home network. A device that can be used
as a server (a computer, etc.) must be
connected to your wireless or wired LAN
home network*.
* For details on servers which are compatible with
this receiver, see page 66.
