Connection issues

When I connect to the HP Pocket Playlist device with my mobile device I lose Internet access.

Cause

Solution

You have to configure the HP Pocket Playlist device for

hotspot mode for it to connect to your home network so it can

access the internet.

Turn on hotspot mode and input your home network name

and security information. Note that the HP Pocket Playlist

device must be in range of your home network for internet

access. For more information about hotspot mode, see

Hotspot mode on page 18

.

I don't see my HP Pocket Playlist device on the app on my mobile device.

Cause

The app started before the device was ready.

From the app, tap the refresh icon

.

My mobile device failed to connect to HP Pocket Playlist.

Cause

Solution

Connection settings.

Make sure HP Pocket Playlist is ready and set to Wi-Fi

mode, and make sure the Wi-Fi settings of the mobile device

are set to connect to HP Pocket Playlist.

When reestablishing a wireless connection to HP Pocket Playlist, the Connect to a Network dialog box opens indicating the

router has not been set up.

Cause

Solution

If you manually disconnect the wireless connection to HP

Pocket Playlist, when you attempt to reconnect it, Windows

treats it as a first time connection.

To establish a connection, you can click the Connect to the

network without setting it up link to connect to the HP Pocket

Playlist device. You do not need to click OK to set up the

connection.

Select connect automatically to prevent Windows from

prompting about a new network connection.
