n Broadband internet connection

n Modem

Device that connects to the broadband circuit
and conducts communications on the Internet.
A type that is integrated with a router is also

n Router

When using this unit, we recommend you use
a router equipped with the following functions:
• Built-in DHCP server

This function automatically assigns IP
addresses on the LAN.

• Built-in 100BASE-TX switch

When connecting multiple devices, we
recommend a switching hub with a speed of
100 Mbps or greater.

n Ethernet cable

(CAT-5 or greater recommended)

• Use only a shielded STP or ScTP LAN cable

which is available at retailer.

• The normal shielded-type Ethernet cable

is recommended. If a flat-type cable or
unshielded-type cable is used, other devices
could be affected by noise.

• If you have an Internet provider contract for a line

on which network settings are made manually,
make the settings at “Network” (

vpage 135

).

• With this unit, it is possible to use the DHCP and

Auto IP functions to make the network settings
automatically.

• When using this unit with the broadband router’s

DHCP function enabled, this unit automatically
performs the IP address setting and other
settings.
When using this unit connected to a network with
no DHCP function, make the settings for the IP
address, etc., at “Network” (

vpage 135

).

• When setting manually, check the setting

contents with the network administrator.

NOTE

• A contract with an ISP is required to connect to

the Internet.
No additional contract is needed if you already
have a broadband connection to the Internet.

• The types of routers that can be used depend on

the ISP. Contact an ISP or a computer shop for
details.

• marantz assumes no responsibility whatsoever

for any communication errors or troubles
resulting from customer’s network environment
or connected devices.

• This unit is not compatible with PPPoE. A PPPoE-

compatible router is required if you have a contract
for a type of line set by PPPoE.

• Do not connect an NETWORK connector directly

to the LAN port/ Ethernet connector on your
computer.

• To listen to audio streaming, use a router that

supports audio streaming.
