broadband router with built-in access point.

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.
• Depending on the server, video files may be
displayed, but they cannot be played on the ASD-
3W.
For connections to the Internet, contact an ISP
(Internet Service Provider) or a computer shop.
n Others
• If you have an Internet provider contract for a line on
which network settings are made manually, make
the settings at GUI menu “Setup” – “Network”
– “Network Setup” (vpage 12).
• With the ASD-3W, it is possible to use the DHCP
and Auto IP functions to make the network settings
automatically.
• When using a broadband router (DHCP
function), the ASD-3W sets the IP address, etc.,
automatically.
When using the ASD-3W connected to a network
with no DHCP function, make the settings for the
IP address, etc., at GUI menu “Setup” – “Network”
– “Network Setup” (vpage 12).
• The ASD-3W is not compatible with PPPoE. A
PPPoE-compatible router is required if you have
a contract for a line of the type with which the
PPPoE is set.
• Depending on the ISP with which you have your
contract, it may be necessary to make proxy
server settings to use the Internet radio function.
If you made proxy server settings on the computer
to connect to the Internet, make the proxy server
settings on the ASD-3W in the same way.
