Wireless LAN Converter
This setting is required for connecting a wire-
less LAN converter to the receiver and using
wireless network functions.
For the wireless LAN converter, use the sepa-
rately sold AS-WL300.
Access Point Setting
Make the connection settings for the wireless
LAN converter connected to the receiver and
the access point. Connect the wireless LAN
converter to the receiver and set DHCP on the
“IP Address, Proxy” settings menu beforehand
(page 64). There are four way to make the set-
tings for connecting to the access point, as
shown below.
! WPS (PBC) – Connection settings are made
automatically simply by pressing the WPS
buttons on the access point and wireless LAN
converter, following the instructions displayed
on the receiver’s screen. This is the simplest
way of making the settings, and is possible
when the access point and wireless LAN
converter are equipped with WPS buttons.
Network connection settings require
approximately 2 minutes from the time the
WPS buttons are pressed. Wait until the
settings are completed.
! WPS (PIN) – Display a list of the SSIDs of
connectable access points and select the
access point to which you want to connect
from this list. Connection settings are made by
inputting the 8-digit PIN code displayed on the
receiver’s screen to the access point to which
you want to connect.
! Search for Access Point – Display a list of
the SSIDs of connectable access points and
select the access point to which you want to
connect from this list. Connection settings
with the access point are made by setting the
access point’s security protocol, security key
and WEP default key (only when the access
point’s security protocol is WEP).
! Manual Setting – Connection settings are
made by manually inputting the SSID, security
protocol, security key and WEP default key
of the access point to which you want to
connect.
Note
! If there is a “; ” (semicolon) in the access
point’s SSID or security key, wireless LAN
connection will not be possible even after
the wireless LAN converter settings are
completed. Change the setting of the access
point’s SSID or security key to a character
string that does not include a “; ” (semicolon).
WLAN IP Address
If the IP address of a device connected in the
LAN other than the wireless LAN converter
is set to “192.168.XXX.249”, the IP address of
the wireless LAN converter will be redundant,
making connection to the access point impos-
sible. In this case, use this setting to set an IP
address specific to the wireless LAN converter.
1 Select ‘Wireless LAN Converter’ from
the Network Setup menu.
2 Make the wireless LAN converter
settings as necessary.
When making the connection settings of the
wireless LAN converter and access point, select
“Access Point Setting” and make the connec-
tion settings for the wireless LAN converter and
access point following the instructions on the
screen.
If you want to set the wireless LAN converter’s
IP address, select “WLAN IP Address” and
input the IP address.

related items can be checked.
! IP Address – Check the IP address of this
receiver.
! MAC Address – Check the MAC address of
