TROUBLESHOOTING

If your radio can connect to the network successfully, but is unable to play particular stations, it may be due to one of the following reasons.| 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 station is not broadcasting anymore. The link on the radio is out of date. This is updated automatically every day, so the next time you turn on the link will be recognised. The internet connection between the server (often located in a different country) and yours is slow. Some internet service providers may fail to stream in certain geographical areas. Try using a PC to play back the stream via the broadcaster’s web site. If you can play back the station with a PC, please report to the customer service where you bought this radio. If you have a laptop, try connecting it if your Internet Radio cannot find the station.
---|---
When you scan for PCs under UPnP function, none can be found, or the PC you are looking for does not appear in the list.| You have not connected to the wireless Access point. On the internet radio, ENTER ‘Configuration’, ‘Network’, ‘Wireless network connection’ and then ENTER your Wireless network. (You may need to enter a security key to access the network wirelessly). You have a firewall set on your PC which is stopping you accessing shared files. If you have a third party firewall (Like Norton, or Zone Alarm) that will have its own control panel and you will need to consult the manual for your firewall. If your PC is connected to a managed network, with a server sometimes the PC being searched for needs to be server Workgroup..
I can’t share a folder, as the option is not highlighted.| When the internet radio is scanning the content of the folders on a PC, it is possible that a scan error may occur if the windows file sharing application times out. This is most likely to occur if both the PC with the media content and the Internet Radio are connected wirelessly. Try re-connecting the PC with the media content into the network via cable. This will dramatically increase the speed at which the Internet Radio is able to scan the content of the Media PC.
