which allows the use of an active or passive antenna.
The antenna is connected with a coaxial F-connector.•

Network connection/
Preparing the internet connection
You can integrate this radio into a local network and
even access home servers or other authorised resources.
To receive internet radio or access non-local media
(streaming, such as Spotify Connect), the network must be
connected to the internet.
Note
The LAN connection is less susceptible to faults than a
WLAN connection. That´s why it´s recommended to use
a wired connection between access point (AP) and radio
to ensure an undisturbed reception.
4.1 LAN connection (wired network)•
• Connect a LAN cable of type RJ45 to a free socket on
your router, switch or access point.•
• Connect the other end of the LAN cable to the RJ45 LAN
socket on the radio.•
• Make sure that the router is on and that you have an
Internet or network connection.•
• If you have questions about router configuration,
please consult the operating manual of the router for
troubleshooting.•
• A detailed description of how to configure the LAN
connection is given in the Wired network connection
(LAN) section.
4.2 WLAN connection (wireless network)•
• Ensure that the router is switched on, is functioning
correctly and that there is a connection to the internet.•
• Activate the WLAN function of your router.•
• Follow your router´s operating instructions as regards the
correct functioning of the WLAN connection.•
• A detailed description of how to configure the
LAN connection is given in the Wireless network
connection (LAN) section.

B: Sliding cover
Insert the batteries provided, paying attention to match the
polarities correctly. The correct polarity is indicated by the
plus and minus symbols in the battery compartment.
5.2 Radio – Connecting and starting up
Connect the network cable to a properly installed and
easily accessible network socket.
The power supply unit is suitable for mains voltages
between 100 and 240 V, and is thus operable on almost
any AC power grid. Please note that a country-specific
adapter may be necessary.
You can find an appropriate selection of Hama products at
www.hama.com.
Note•
• Only connect the product to a socket that has been
approved for the device. The electrical socket must
always be easily accessible.•
• When using a mult-socket power strip, make sure
that the sum power draw of all the connected devices
does not exceed its maximum throughput rating.•
• If you will not be using the product for a long period
of time, disconnect it from mains power.
Once the product has been connected to mains power,
initialisation takes place.
The radio starts up.
To assist you in first-time setup of the radio, a Setup
Wizard is provided.
5.3. General notes on use

(WiFi) connections and then shows a list of the available
networks.•
• Turn [enter/navigate] to switch amongst the networks
discovered. At the bottom of the list are options to
restart the search ([Rescan]), select a cable connection
([Wired]) or configure the connection yourself ([Manual
config]).•
• If your network is not found or the SSID (Service Set
Identification, that is, the name of your network) is not
shown, the network may be hidden or out of range. In
this case, try manual configuration or connecting by
LAN cable.
15.1.2 Wireless network connection (WLAN)
Depending on the network, there are a number of ways to
connect to it.
Networks that support connection via WPS (Wi-Fi Protected
Setup) are identified in the list as [WPS].
Other connections are either open networks or connections
protected with a PSK, or Pre-Shared-Key.
Desired Network
WPS-/PSK-/ open network connection
WPS allows simple and nevertheless protected connection
of the radio to the network. Two options are available
for this purpose: The connection can be set up by means
of PBC, or Push-Button Configuration, or by the PIN
procedure, in which the web interface of your router
prompts you to enter a randomly generated sequence of
numbers.
• Select your desired network. (Indicated by the prefix
[WPS])•
• In the WPS menu, choose the Push Button option and
confirm your selection by pressing [enter/navigate].•
• Press the WPS button on your router or current access
point. This can often be done using the web interface,
as well.•
• Consult the operating instructions of your router or
access point for details.•
• Once the process has been started on the router or
access point, the radio should be able to find and
connect to the network.•
• Alternatively, PBC setup can be initiated from the internet
settings of the radio:
[menu]
System settings
Network
PBC Wlan setup
PIN setup•
• Select your desired network. (Indicated by the prefix
[WPS])•
• In the WPS menu, choose the Pin option and confirm
your selection by pressing [enter/navigate].•
• The radio generates an 8-digit code, which must be
entered into the web or user interface of your router or
access point.•
• Consult the corresponding handbook for details on
configuring the router or access point.
Skip WPS / Pre-Shared Key (PSK) setup•
• Choose the item Skip WPS to proceed to key entry.•
• In networks that do not support WPS, you will go directly
to key entry.•
• In the input screen, enter the whole key and then confirm
with OK.•
• If the key was entered correctly, the radio connects to
the access point and establishes the internet/network
connection..
Note•
• Often the Pre-Shared Key is printed on the back or
bottom of the router or access point.•
• When entering the key, take notice of capitalisation.
Open network
Note•
• We recommend against establishing unsecured
connections and advise you to always protect your
network against unauthorised access.•
• If you plan to use an open network, you just have
to select the network ID from the list of available
networks and confirm.•
• The radio then connects immediately to the network.
15.1.3 Wired network connection (LAN)•
• Connect the radio to the router using a LAN cable. This
method of direct connection is the most reliable and
least susceptible to interference.•
• The cable connection is listed amongst the available
connections as Wired. Simply select it to proceed. If the
DHCP server of the router or access point is active, then
the connection is now established automatically.•
• To find out how to determine whether the DHCP server is
active, please consult the operating instructions of your
router or access point.
15.1.4 Manual configuration of network
connection – wireless (WLAN) and wired (LAN)•
• To manually configure the network connection, proceed
as follows:
[menu]
System settings

• Select the option DHCP disable.•
• Enter the necessary network information, such as the
IP address, subnet mask, gateway address and DNS
(primary and secondary).
Find this information in the web interface of your router
or access point, or ask your network administrator. Once
all the information has been entered correctly, confirm
to proceed. The radio now attempts to establish the
connection.
Manual configuration wireless (WLAN) –
DHCP enable•
• Select the option Wireless.•
• Select the option DHCP enable.•
• In the input screen, enter the whole SSID (network name)
and then confirm with OK.•
• Now choose the security standard used by the network.
This can be found in the configuration options of your
router or access point.•
• Depending on the encryption used, you may need
to enter the network key before the connection is
established..
Manual configuration wireless (WLAN) –
DHCP disable
The method described here assumes the DHCP server is
active (manual wireless configuration(WLAN) – DHCP
enable). However, the network information such as IP
address, subnet mask, gateway address, and DNS (primary
and secondary) must still be entered.
Find this information in the web interface of your router
or access point, or ask your network administrator. Once
all the information has been entered correctly, confirm
to proceed. The radio now attempts to establish the
connection.
15.1.5 View settings
Here you can find all the most important information about
all network connections currently used or configured on
the radio, such as: MAC address, WLAN region, DHCP
