Connecting to your computer network
This section of this book describes how to connect the radio to your network using either the wireless (WiFi)
connection or the wired (Ethernet) connection.
Before you can use your R100 radio to listen to Internet radio or to music streamed from your computer, it must
fi rst be connected to your computer network.
These instructions also apply to the Network Wizard in the Network Settings menu (from step 2 onwards).The
following instructions assume that you have just set up the clock and time options using the Setup Wizard as
described on the preceding page.
1. After setting the Daylight Savings options (see page 9), the display will show the 'Keep network connected?'
option. You should choose 'Yes' if you wish to keep the radio connected to the network when it is in Standby
mode. This will allow remote control software to switch on your radio when needed. You should also choose
'Yes' if using your radio as part of a group of multi-room products.
If you choose 'No' then your radio will shut down its WiFi or Ethernet connection except when using internet
radio, Spotify and music player modes. This minimises power consumption but it does mean that you will
need to switch the radio on manually in order to use either Spotify Connect, the 'Play to' / 'Cast to Device'
function or any remote control software such as the UNDOK app.
Press the Tuning Up or Down buttons to highlight the required option and then press the Select button to
make the selection.
After setting the Keep Connected option, the display will show a list of supported WiFi regional options.
Press the Tuning Up or Down buttons to highlight the required region (for the UK choose 'Europe'), and then
press the Select button to make the selection. Do this even if you are planning to use the wired Ethernet
connection. Your radio will then scan for available WiFi networks.
2. The radio will enter the Network Settings Wizard and will display 'Scanning...'. The radio will automatically
scan both 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi bands. After a short while the display will show a list of the available WiFi
networks. If you are intending to use the WiFi connection, go to step 3 on the next page.
To use the Ethernet connection to your router (with automatic confi guration), press the Tuning Up or Down
buttons to point to the '[Wired]' menu item. Press the Select button and the radio will attempt to connect.
If your network allows automatic confi guration (which is normal) the radio will acquire a network address.
The screen should say 'Connecting...', and then 'Setup wizard completed'. Press the Select button to exit
the setup wizard and show the Main menu. You can then skip to paragraph 10 on page 13.
