HELPFUL TIPS

  1. If Internet Radio keeps re-buffering radio stations:
    The Internet Radio is streaming data from the radio station via your broadband connection, if there is a high error rate on your broadband connection, or the connection is intermittent, then it will cause the Internet Radio to pause until the connection is re-established and it has received enough data to start playing again.
    If your Internet Radio keeps stopping, please check the DSL modem to ensure that the Broadband line is not suffering a high error rate or disconnections. If you are experiencing these problems, you will need to contact your broadband supplier.

  2. What is Buffering?
    When playing a stream, the Internet Radio/Media player, downloads a small amount of the stream before it starts playing. This is used to fill in any gaps in the stream that may occur if the internet or the wireless network is busy. Internet Radio streams music data from the PC while you are listening. If a stream gets blocked or experiences  Internet congestion while transferring it may stop/interfere with the quality of play. If this happens, check your internet connection speed- it must be faster than the speed of the streams.

  3. My radio is working but some stations cannot be played.
    a) The problem may be due to one or more of the followings:
    b) The radio station is no longer broadcasting.
    c) The radio station has reached the maximum allowed number of simultaneous listeners.
    d) The radio station has changed the stream arrangement and the link is no longer valid.

S o l utions

---|---|---
Cannot connect to Wi-Fi network| Network down| Confirm that a Wi-Fi or Ethernet Wired connected PC can access the internet (i.e. can browse the web) using the same network.
• Check that a DHCP  server is available, or that you have configured a static  IP address on the radio.
• Check that your firewall is not blocking any outgoing ports.
As a minimum, the radio needs access to UDP and TCP ports 80,443 and  8008, and DNS port 53.
| The router restricts access to listed MAC addresses| Obtain the MAC address from Configuration > Information > Network > Wi Fi  MAC and add to the allowed equipment list on your access point.
Note: The radio has separate MAC addresses for wired and wireless networks.
---|---|---
Insufficient Wi-Fi  signal strength| Check the distance to the router; see if a computer can connect to the network in this location
• Optimize the distance of the router’s location
Unknown encryption

method

| Change encryption method on router. The radio supports WEP, WPA, WPA2
Firewall preventing access| Windows Media Player: varies — non-Microsoft firewalls may require configuration for UPnP.
If your radio  can connect to the network successfully but is unable  to play particular stations| | • The station is not broadcasting at this time of the day (remember it may be located in a different time zone).
• The station has too many people trying to attach to the radio station server and the server capacity is not large enough.
• The station has reached the maximum allowed number of simultaneous listeners.
• The link on the radio is out of date. This is updated automatically every day, so the next time you turn it on the link will be recognized.
